Man’s suspiciously large crotch leads airport police to cocaine find (PHOTO)
A man attempting to smuggle half a kilo of cocaine through a Madrid airport in his briefs has been (unsurprisingly) arrested.
The 43 year old was detained in Madrid’s Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas airport after arriving from Costa Rica on Monday.
Madrid police couldn’t resist tweeting a photo of the man’s suspiciously large package which contained 400g of cocaine.
