Garland resident Kennedy Kirby, 30, was initially charged with the manufacturing and delivery of a controlled substance, according to the Wylie Police Department. On Thursday, he was formally charged with murder.

In a Facebook post, authorities explained that the charges stemmed from the death of Jacob Bowers, who died of an overdose on Jan. 11. Bowers’ toxicology report led authorities to charge Kirby with homicide.

“Through investigative techniques, detectives were able to determine that Kirby used an unsuspecting Uber delivery driver to deliver a package containing fentanyl to Bowers,” Wylie police said in a statement.
