Camas, Washington -- 

On 05/07/2010 Camas Police arrested Bradley C. Allen, sixty years of age and a resident of Camas, Washington, and charged him with two violations connected to misappropriation of controlled substances from the Camas Fire Department.    Allen was booked into the Clark County jail on one count of procuring a legend drug without a prescription and one count of delivery of a substance in lieu of a controlled substance.

Allen holds the position of Paramedic Captain at Camas Fire Department, where he has worked for the last 22 years.   One of Allen’s duties is to manage the stock of medical supplies used by Camas Fire Department.   After his arrest, Allen was immediately placed on administrative leave by City officials.

This case began when Camas Fire Department officials notified Camas Police that a Schedule II  controlled substance, Fentanyl Citrate, was missing from their stock room.   Camas Fire Department officials also reported finding additional vials of Fentanyl Citrate with broken tamper seals.

Camas Police are working closely with Camas Fire Department on certain aspects of the investigation which are on-going.

There is no additional information to release at this point.
