Mike Posted March 6, 2009 Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 MADRID (Reuters) – A 66-year-old passenger who arrived at Barcelona airport in a wheelchair and with a leg cast made entirely of cocaine was arrested on Friday as he tried to get through customs. The man, flying from Santiago, Chile, also had cocaine stashed in six cans of beer and two folding stools in his luggage, the Interior Ministry said. Police confiscated nearly 5 kilogrammes (11 pounds) of the drug in total. Police believe the man, or his accomplices, may have broken the leg on purpose so as not to arouse the suspicions of customs officials. Spain is the primary entry point for cocaine into Europe and is the largest consumer of the drug in the European Union. Copyright © 2009 Reuters Limited.

MindCrime Posted March 6, 2009 Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 So he broke his leg on purpose? He was probably so numb from the cocaine that he couldn't feel a thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edna Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 Not at all, UncleJoe... Anyone who´s idiot enough to risk their freedom and get in such trouble just for money, deserves that trouble. And drug dealers deserve bigger trouble. Ugly, evil people... I couldn´t care less... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
