National Drug Takeback Day is this Saturday, an opportunity for residents to dispose of unwanted and expired medications that they may have.
Jefferson County Sheriff’s Capt. Yohance Brunson, who commands the Tri-County Drug Task Force talked about the event on Talk Back Live with Floyd Donald.
Brunson went on to explain that expired and unwanted medications can pose a health hazard in addition to being a danger to children.
He was asked about the locations that residents can drop off the medications at.
A drop-box is also located at the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office located next to the count jail. That box can be used during regular business hours Monday through Friday.
