Baltimore police tell 11 News the results of their testing are slightly different than what's been widely reported regarding testing from an outside lab. Police confirmed on Thursday they tested what they were given and were not part of the process of collecting that sample and cannot say if it was connected to the mass overdose. Police said they did not send the sample to that lab and that their own internal lab testing results were slightly different than what has been publicly reported. This comes a week after as dozens of people got sick after taking the still unknown drug. Emergency crews rushed to save people with Narcan and get people to hospitals. The incident left 27 people hospitalized, some in critical condition. Since then, outreach workers have focused on the area, hoping to reach the most vulnerable. Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott was on CNN and talked about his approach to the crisis. "If you are someone who is peddling drugs or a drug dealer who is doing harm literally giving people things you know will kill them, you need to be removed from that community and put in jail. But we also have to grow and evolve our understanding of how to deal with addiction," Scott said.
