DEA warns of brightly-coloured fentanyl getting used to lure the youth. The DEA issued an advisory Tuesday about an “emerging trend” of “brightly-coloured” fentanyl pills getting used to lure kids and younger individuals.

Rainbow fentanyl — fentanyl pills and powder that come in a variety of bright colours, shapes, and sizes — is a deliberate effort by drug traffickers to drive addiction.
