FBI addiction documentary to be screened at Illinois school

CHICAGO (AP) — A documentary about drug addiction made for schools by the FBI and the Drug Enforcement Administration is being screened in suburban Chicago.

FBI Director James Comey says in a news release the film “may be difficult to watch,” but it’s meant to educate students about the consequences of drug abuse.

The 45-minute documentary is titled “Chasing the Dragon: The Life of an Opiate Addict.” It will be shown Wednesday at Westmont High School.

The documentary includes interviews with people affected by addiction to prescription drugs and heroin. It also includes interviews with medical professionals and people in law enforcement.
