NOW: Woman given four doses of Narcan for suspected heroin overdose

A woman is in the hospital after the Racine County Sheriff’s Office says she had to be given four doses of Narcan following a suspected heroin overdose.

The Sheriff’s Office says they were called to a home in the Town of Norway just before 2:00 a.m. Friday for a 25-year-old woman who was barely breathing. They found the woman on the floor of a bathroom inside the home with a syringe with a substance that tested positive for heroin next to her.

The Sheriff’s Office is still investigating.
