Dudley Police Department
Press Release
October 27th, 2018
On Saturday, October 27th, the Dudley Police Department and the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) conducted another prescription drug “Take Back” event. For the thirteenth time in Dudley, the public had the opportunity to provide for safe disposal of expired, unused, and unwanted prescription drugs. The service was free and anonymous. This was a well-attended event. Over 30 people dropped off a large quantity of prescription medications. The department also had three needle drop boxes for those who sought to dispose of medical sharps. It was another successful event and the Dudley Police encourage everyone to take advantage of these programs in the future. The next one is tentatively planned for the spring of 2019.
