This Minnesota sheriff is pushing for overdose reporting from medical facilities to law enforcement

Medical professionals are required to notify law enforcement if they treat various injuries like gunshot wounds or burns to law enforcement. The way the law sits right now, by the time law enforcement is notified of an overdose, it may be too late to pursue charges against the person who supplied the drugs, according to Olmsted County Sheriff Kevin Torgerson.
