LAWTON: Federal officials say the new heroin crisis is crossing race, age, gender and geographical lines.<\/p>\n
BOTTICELLI: What we\u2019ve seen with this, with this upsurge has really been a demographic shift. So not only do we see younger users who are using heroin, but also much more suburban and rural use.<\/p>\n
LAWTON: Fredericksburg, George Washington\u2019s boyhood home, is one of the most historic small towns. But this seemingly idyllic small town has seen an explosion of heroin abuse, as 21-year-old John Cizik and his girlfriend Tayler Beets can confirm.<\/p>\n
J. CIZIK: It\u2019s not surprising when you hear about people doing it. Sad to say. But it\u2019s true.<\/p>\n
TAYLER BEETS: You just see it a lot in this town. Like, good kids.<\/p>\n
REV. TOBY LARSON (Celebration Anglican Church): You\u2019re only kidding yourself if you think it\u2019s not in your town. It\u2019s everywhere.<\/p>\n
