More than 960 bricks of suspected fentanyl that were intended to land in McKeesport were seized Tuesday at the Greyhound bus station in Downtown Pittsburgh, law enforcement officials said.

The Allegheny County District Attorney’s Narcotics Enforcement Team (DANET), along with the Pittsburgh Regional Transit police and the Attorney General’s task force, made the bust.

The seizure amounts to about 48,100 stamp bags, officials said. The suspected fentanyl has a street value of nearly $290,000.

Two people were arrested.

Acting Attorney General Michelle Henry said in a release that fentanyl “is an incredibly dangerous drug that is plaguing Pennsylvania communities. Thanks to strong law enforcement collaboration, we’ve prevented (these suspects) from selling 48,100 more doses of this poison.”

This is the second bust made this month at the bus station, according to law officials.

The first was on Feb. 1 when a similar amount of drugs were were seized.

During that incident, 1,455 bricks of suspected heroin/fentanyl were confiscated, or about 72,750 stamp bags.

Police determined that the drugs were to be distributed throughout Pittsburgh with 300 bricks designated for McKeesport.

“We are grateful for the dangerous work done by DANET officers and the Office of Attorney General to keep drugs off of the streets and out of our neighborhoods,” Allegheny County District Attorney Stephen A. Zappala Jr. said.
