MENOMINEE, MI— A substance found at Menominee Elementary School Monday that was initially thought to be fentanyl turned out to be ADHD medication.
The Menominee Police Department says a baggie of an unknown substance was found and turned over to the School Resource Officer, who took it to the department for testing.
The 3rd - 5th grade hallway where the substance was discovered went into a “code yellow” lockdown. It was searched by officers and a K-9 and cleaned by janitorial staff.
Preliminary testing of the substance indicated that it was possibly fentanyl.
Review of camera footage led officials to a student. They and a parent confirmed the baggie was theirs.
The substance was taken Tuesday to the Michigan State Police Crime Lab, which identified it as Vyvanse, a Schedule II narcotic used for ADHD.
