Local law enforcement, along with the St. Joseph Youth Alliance, will be collecting expired or unused prescription medication at a take back event Saturday.
The Prescription Take Back event runs from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. on Saturday at the East Hills Parking Lot, by the former Sears store.
Controlled, non-controlled, over-the-counter substances and sharps will be accepted.
The event gives residents the opportunity to safely dispose of unused or expired medications. It's sponsored by St. Joseph Youth Alliance, the Drug Free Community Coalition, Buchanan County Sheriff’s Department and the St. Joseph Police Department.
