FENTAYNL AND A TODDLER
Gallup, Aug. 5
On Aug. 5, around 12:30 pm, McKinley County Sheriff’s Officers Lionel Desiderio and Patrick Largo were dispatched to the Denny’s at 836 U.S. Hwy. 491 when Metro Dispatch informed them of a suspicious man driving a gray GMC Yukon with Arizona plates.
When the officers arrived on the scene, they found a man who was identified as Colby Livingston in a SUV that matched that description. When Largo approached Livingston, 21, he noticed that the man was holding some burnt aluminum foil and a plastic straw. Largo also found a small blue pill inside the foil.
According to his report, Desiderio determined that the blue pill was fentanyl.
The officers also found a three-year-old child in the backseat of Livingston’s car.
Livingston was arrested for possession of a controlled substance and child abuse. Livingston’s court date had not been set by press time.
