A baby narrowly survived an overdose Tuesday after ingesting fentanyl at a San Francisco park.

Ten-month-old Senna was playing as he usually does at Moscone Park — crawling in the grass and putting leaves in his mouth, father Ivan Matkovic told the San Francisco Chronicle.

Soon after, nanny Wendy Marroqui noticed the baby boy was starting to lose consciousness and his mouth was turning blue.

“So, I shake him and I’m like ‘something’s wrong.’ I saw his face and he was like dizzy,” Ms. Marroqui told KNTV. “I thought he was not breathing.”

She quickly applied CPR and called 911.
