Rochester, NY

This was found in an abandoned house during a needle cleanup by Hope Dealers. I got 70 needles out of the bag. The green label with "2 Hits" on it is waxed paper used to hold heroin.

Amazing what you find during these clean ups. Heroin must be cheap. A powerful image. "V"

Well, if there's a bright side to this, at least the needles were all in one bag.
