INDIANAPOLIS -- At the start of 2026, Governor Mike Braun announced there was a major boost in the removal of drugs across the state, leading to a 117 percent spike in opioid seizures since last year. The increase is due to more pro-active policing in the state, and increased sizes of drug seizures especially fentanyl. Typically, a fentanyl seizure has been measured in grams, where I think in the past year or so, we've seen the fentanyl seizures being measured in kilos and pounds. So that's been a lot bigger seizures, especially in that category.”State police have also added upgrades to Sotoxa devices that help keep impaired drivers off the roads. So it's reducing, hopefully reducing drug dependence, and getting people out of that cycle.”
