Two people accused of possessing Fentanyl in the presence of a child were arrested in Muskogee and 10 others, including police officers, were taken to the hospital for exposure as a precaution on Tuesday.

Muskogee Police said Miguel Torres and Amyllia Wilson were arrested and accused of possessing Fentanyl in the presence of a two-year-old child.

Officers responded to the Homeland store off South York Street just after noon to investigate a "suspicious individual" in a parked car.
