California seized more than 28,000 pounds of fentanyl over the past year. That's a nearly six-fold increase in the amount of the drug recovered a year earlier. State officials said Friday that the California National Guard contributed to the seizures, hiring and training more than 160 members to work on fentanyl-reducing efforts. Gov.
