CAPE MAY COUNTY, N.J. — A middle school student was found dead after taking a combination of heroin and fentanyl, according to police.

NBC Philadelphia reported that Vincent Weiner, 13, was found in his bedroom at his mother’s house. Police said both heroin and fentanyl were found in his system.

Detectives said Weiner actively took the drugs.

Weiner’s mother, Jamie Lund, said she did not know how the boy got the drugs, and that her “heart is broken, shattered into a million pieces.”

“The two weeks or so prior there had been unusual behavior at school, it was discovered that he had been cutting. And stories of bullying in school began to surface,” Lund said.

The incident is currently under investigation.
