A “possible OD” at a University of Mississippi dormitory was reported in dispatch audio on the same day two Ole Miss students were found dead in separate incidents.

“They do not believe the subject is breathing — trying to start CPR over the phone,” the dispatcher can be heard saying in audio obtained by WMC Action 5 News.

“I believe they’re still trying to get somebody in the dorms to do, or in the building to do CPR,” she added in the Lafayette County dispatch recording.

Public safety officials rushed to the school’s seven-story Stewart Hall dorm just after 1:30 p.m. Monday for the “possible overdose” report, according to the outlet.

Firefighters could be heard arriving at the scene while on the call.

It is unclear whether the subject of the call is one of the two students who died.

Two University of Mississippi students were found dead Monday in separate incidents with packaged kratom discovered at both scenes, authorities said.

The probe into the mysterious deaths is being led by the Lafayette County Metro Narcotics team, which said Tuesday that the cases are not believed to be connected.

“Law enforcement is currently conducting two separate death investigations. At this time, we have no confirmed evidence indicating that the two deaths are connected,” the agency said. “However, packaged Kratom sold from a retail store was found during both investigations.”

The identities of the two dead students have not yet been released, nor have their causes of death.

Lafayette County Coroner Glenn Coleman told the Clarion Ledger that both students were male and were aged 18 and 20.

The coroner added that one student was found inside his dorm on campus and the other in his off-campus home.

The narcotics squad said it does “not have confirmed information indicating that kratom or any other substance was a contributing factor in either death,” but encourages everyone to “avoid kratom and any other medication or substance that was not prescribed to you or obtained from a trusted, regulated source.”

Lafayette County Metro Narcotics declined to comment on the deaths to The Post Wednesday. Coleman did not immediately respond to request for comment.

Kratom, also known as “gas station heroin,” can be legally sold in parts of Mississippi but is restricted within Lafayette County, where the university is located, according to Mississippi Today.

In a statement, Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs Dr. Shawnboda Mead said: “The University is heartbroken by the recent loss of two students and extends our condolences to their families, friends, and loved ones during this difficult time.”

Mead also confirmed that two students had died and said cops are “not aware of any additional student deaths,” asking the community “not to speculate about the circumstances.”

A spokesman for the University of Mississippi told The Post Wednesday that “we have no additional information to share at this time.”
