WINTER SPRINGS, Fla. — A 30-year-old man was arrested Wednesday, more than three months after a 32-year-old man fatally overdosed on heroin, the Winter Springs Police Department said.
Alfonso Pagan fatally overdosed Sept. 23 at the Moss Park apartments on North Moss Road near West State Road 434 after Christopher Toro provided him with fentanyl-laced heroin, Winter Springs police Capt. Chris Deisler said.
