Here is a quick translation of a news article from one of todays papers:

Police warn against dangerous drug.

Two young men in Århus were in critical condition after having ingested a drug that hasn't prior been seen in Denmark.

Two people had to be admitted in Århus last night after having consumed the drug Bromo-Dragonfly.

After intensive care they're out of danger.

The drug isn't previously seen in Denmark and experts say according to Østjyllands police, that it's potentialy lethal to ingest.

The drug is known in Sweden
It was in connection with a large techo party at Moesgaard that the two were hospitalized.
Bromo-Dragonfly is probably found as a powder, the duty officer at the police on saturday informs. The drug is known from Sweden.

"It's super-dangerous", says police commisioner Mikael Larsen from Østjyllands police.

The two men are 18 and 22 years respectively and are under treatment at the communehospital in Århus, but by saturday noon the police still haven't been able to speak with them.

It isn't the first time there has been a case with Br-dragonfly here, so dunno why they say it's the first time it's been observed here other than for keeping up their rep as talentless journalists.

The incident was mentioned shortly in the news on the national television station TV2. A police officer was interviewed and he warned against the substance since people don't know how they'll react to it and saying that because it's a longacting compound with a slow onset people may mistakenly keep redosing untill they eventually OD.
