The fatal Eyota drug overdose was one of three that local authorities responded to in a 36-hour span. Rochester Police Captain Casey Moilanen said officers revived a 20-year-old man around 2:20 a.m. Wednesday in the 300 block of Elton Hills Dr. and a 24-year-old man at southeast Rochester residence Thursday morning. 

Moilanen said officers used Narcan in both suspected drug overdoses. Schueller authorities always recommended overdose victims seek medical attention after their revival, pointing out that they can experience a rebound of overdose symptoms after being revived with Narcan.
