October 29, 2025 - Philadelphia, PA
Attorney General Dave Sunday, along with law enforcement and community leaders across Pennsylvania, announced efforts to halt fentanyl trafficking have resulted in a record amount of fentanyl seizures by the Office of Attorney General in 2025.Through September, the Office of Attorney General's Bureau of Narcotics Investigation seized more than 50 million doses of fentanyl statewide. The seizures happened during the course of investigations when arrests were typically made, as well as recoveries of other drugs and firearms possessed illegally.Attorney General Sunday joined partners in public announcements this week in Pittsburgh and Philadelphia, where the majority of the fentanyl was seized."We are not claiming victory with this record number of fentanyl seizures - we are sending a message to the predatory dealers perpetrating this flow of deadly fentanyl into our communities," Attorney General Sunday said. "That message is: your days are numbered. I am a strong proponent of treatment and recovery options that provide second chances for those who embrace help, but I am also a firm believer in stopping the flow of deadly poisons with aggressive enforcement and prosecution efforts."Speaker List:Attorney General Dave SundayKevin Bethel, Philadelphia Police CommissionerAdam Geer, Chief Public Safety Director, Philadelphia Office of Public SafetyJack Stollsteimer, Delaware County District AttorneyKevin Steele, Montgomery County District AttorneyPatrick Molloy, Police Chief, Abington Township Police Department
