Arrested in Crotone: 43 year old with Hashish, balance and money in his car

Another Anti-Drug Operation Shakes the City of Crotone

During a normal surveillance activity in the area, the agents of the flying squad of the General Prevention and Public Rescue Office of the local police station arrested a 43-year-old man, originally and resident in the province of Brindisi, as he was found in possession of approximately 40 grams of hashish, a precision electric scale and the sum of 60 euros in cash.

During their service, the officers noticed a car passing along Via G. da Fiore which, upon seeing the police, accelerated in an attempt to escape control.

The officers immediately stopped the vehicle and proceeded to search the passengers, finding the suspicious material hidden inside a pouch carried by one of them.

The man was then arrested on charges of possession for the purpose of dealing drugs and was handed over to the Public Prosecutor’s Office at the Court of Crotone for the relevant investigations.
