Woman Arrested After 15,000 ‘Rainbow Fentanyl’ Pills Found Inside LEGO Container

A New Jersey woman was arrested after police found thousands of “rainbow” fentanyl pills in a LEGO container during a traffic stop in New York City.

The brightly-colored pills are what federal authorites call “every parent’s worst nightmare.” Letitia Bush of Trenton, NJ was arrested on September 28 during a routine traffic stop when authorities found 15,000 pills in a LEGO box.

The estimated street value of the pills was roughly $300,000. Bush is charged with criminal possession in the first and third degrees.

“The pills look like candy,” said New York City’s special narcotics prosecutor Bridgette Brennan. “We believe it is critically important to educate the public about this new form fentanyl is taking.”
