Austin G. Harmon
A Butler man is accused of selling heroin to a woman who later overdosed on the drug but was revived.
On Wednesday, state police arrested Austin G. Harmon, 20, of Butler on felony and misdemeanor drug possession charges.
Police began their investigation about 12:40 a.m. Tuesday when they were called to a home in Connoquenessing Township where 20-year-old Tiffany Marie Kroll had reportedly suffered a heroin-related overdose.
Investigators subsequently learned that Kroll “had communicated with” Harmon “to purchase heroin” on Monday, a police affidavit said.
A full report will appear in the Butler Eagle.
