Employees volunteer for drug testing in Seminole

SEMINOLE, Okla. (AP) - Some employees at a city-owned ambulance service are volunteering to take a drug test while authorities look into missing narcotics at the agency.

City Manager Steve Saxon says some Medicus employees want to undergo the tests so they can be eliminated as potential suspects. Saxon says such testing is only one method authorities are using to figure out who might have taken the missing drugs.

He says a recent inventory revealed that some drugs were missing.

Mark Woodward, the spokesman for the Oklahoma Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs Control, says an agent from that agency met with Medicus employees on Thursday.

Woodward says no arrests are anticipated in the case during the next few days.
