Vancouver, Wash. – Over the past week, the Vancouver Police Department responded to several medical calls involving drug overdose(s). Some of these calls have resulted in the death of the person that ingested the substances. Investigators believe “counterfeit” Oxycodone pills laced with Fentanyl are being sold throughout Clark County.
Detectives from the Major Crimes Team located a relative of one of the victims and were able to identify the individual who provided the pills to them.
On May 29, 2020, Detectives observed the suspect leaving his residence in the 1900 block of NE Bridgecreek Avenue. Detectives executed a search warrant on the suspect’s residence and located evidence matching evidence found at one of the victim’s residences.
David A. Urbach, 23, was arrested for Controlled Substance Homicide and was booked into the Clark County Jail.
The investigation is still ongoing and nothing further is releasable at this time.
