West Yorkshire Police are urging Class A drug users to use caution following two suspected drugs related deaths in the county on Saturday.
Enquiries remain on-going into the deaths of a 36-year-old man in Leeds and a 27-year-old man in Normanton, both on 15 April.
Officers were called to Compton View in Leeds at 8:22am and found the body of a 36-year-old at the property.
At about 12.47 on Saturday afternoon, paramedics were called to Park Green, Normanton following reports of a 27-year-old man suffering breathing difficulties. He passed away at the scene.
Both deaths are being treated as none suspicious and, while toxicology results are being awaited, it is believed they are drugs related.
Detective Chief Inspector Jim Dunkerley of West Yorkshire Police, said: "While we are awaiting full toxicology results we do believe these deaths are Class A drugs related. The force is aware of warnings issued by other forces in the Yorkshire and Humber region about unusually strong heroin or heroin derivatives potentially being in circulation.”
