Investigators said that is 30,000 potentially deadly doses no longer in circulation.
Neighbors said the situation was nerve-wracking.
"I was lying in bed sleeping and I heard bangs. I had no idea what they were, explosions but I didn't hear any sirens or cop cars or anything so I didn't think anything of it," said one neighbor.
