Four people were found unconscious at a home in Mountainair, east of Albuquerque and two were declared dead at the scene, officials said. <\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

A third died enroute to the University of New Mexico Hospital, officials said. <\/p>\n

The fourth survived. Both the survivor and one of the deceased had been administered the overdose medication Narcan.<\/p>\n

More than a dozen first responders were quarantined following the call after exposure to an unknown substance, with some reporting nausea and dizziness, officials said.<\/p>\n

\u201cPreliminary findings indicate this incident is tied to the exposure to a powdered opioid substance within the home and on scene DEA laboratory analysis has confirmed the presence of fentanyl, methamphetamine, and para-fluorofentanyl, also called P4 fentanyl. It\u2019s a more illicit form or version of fentanyl,\u201d New Mexico State Police Chief Matt Broom told reporters.<\/p>\n

The fentanyl was in powder form, police said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese men and women responded to a dangerous situation while working to protect lives and secure the scene,\u201d Broom said. \u201cWe especially recognize the first responders who became sick while carrying out their duties.\u201d <\/p>\n

Mountainair EMS Chief Josh Lewis was among those exposed. Mayor Peter Nieto had previously said Lewis was likely the hardest hit.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s one of the first that went into the residence,\u201d Nieto said. \u201cThat\u2019s what we\u2019re thinking \u2014 he was the one that got the most of it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Five dogs from the home were also placed in quarantine at Mountainair Animal Control.<\/p>\n
