Emeryville Police Administer Naloxone In Suspected Overdose 
On November 6, 2021 at 14:14 PM, Emeryville Police Officers were dispatched to the 1500 block of 40th St. for an unresponsive subject on the sidewalk. Officers arrived on scene and immediately performed CPR. The officers recognized the symptoms of an opioid overdose and administered Naloxone.
In response to the epidemic of drug overdoses from both prescription and illicit opioids, the Emeryville Police Department has trained its officers on the recognition of an opioid overdose and supplied its officers with Naloxone. We want the community to know that calling 911 for assistance with a drug ingestion issue will not result in any criminal charges for being under the influence of an illegal substance. Seeking help is not a crime.
