Catania man used radio transmitter to alert drug dealing spots: caught with drugs in pocket
Explain briefly the following article:
A 24-year-old young man from Catania was arrested by the police with a radio transmitter, used to communicate with lookouts in drug dealing locations. The arrest took place along Viale Tirreno for drug dealing by the officers of the Flying Squad of the Catania Police Headquarters.
The police’s blitz
When the officers approached, the young man tried to escape by hiding inside a building with a reinforced door, thinking he could evade the controls. In a few moments, the police devised a plan to stop him by entering the neighboring building with an open door and then entering from the back into the building where the fugitive had taken refuge.
The young man was immediately recognized, stopped, and searched. In the pockets of his pants, several doses of cocaine, totaling over 6 grams, and marijuana for 12 grams were found, ready to be sold, along with the sum of 300 euros in cash, likely earnings from the drug selling activity.
