Grady County deputies demolish home they say was fueling fentanyl crisis

CHICKASHA, Okla. (KFOR) — Grady County Sheriff’s deputies helped reduce a Chickasha home to rubble Monday after they say it became a magnet for fentanyl activity, overdoses, and squatting—and a symbol of a crisis they say has pushed their small community to the brink.

Deputies say the goal isn’t just to knock down a house—but to send a message to drug dealers that they have no place in Grady County.

“It’s about time,” said Gunner McNeil, who lives across the street from the now-demolished house.
