(KMZA)--A Wamego man has been arrested in connection with the apparent fentanyl overdose death of a 21-year-old man.
The Kansas Bureau of Investigation, in a release, said KBI agents and the Wamego Police Department arrested 20-year-old McKaine Farr Tuesday for the alleged distribution of a controlled substance causing great bodily harm or death.
The Wamego Police Department requested KBI assistance after Jayson Ebert was discovered dead on Sept. 5, 2021, at a Wamego residence.
According to investigators, Farr knowingly distributed counterfeit oxycodone tablets laced with fentanyl that caused Ebert’s death.
He was booked into the Pottawatomie County Jail.
The investigation is ongoing.
