A mixture of fentanyl and heroin caused the death of a 13-year-old Middle Township boy earlier this year, according to his mother and authorities.
Vincent Weiner was found dead in bed by a grandparent in the Rio Grande section Middle Township on June 4.
His mother Jamie Lund shared the news on Facebook Saturday. The chief detective for the Cape May County Prosecutor’s Office confirmed her account, according to PressofAtlanticCity.com.
The teen’s official cause of death was acute intoxication of fentanyl and heroin. More fentanyl than heroin was found in his system.
“Whoever is supplying these babies with drugs, needs to be stopped!,” Lund wrote.
Weiner was a seventh-grader at Middle Township Middle School.
Anyone with information about Weiner’s death is asked to call Lt. Steve Vivirana at the prosecutor’s office at 609-465-1135, or call Middle Township police at 609-465-8700.
