Wednesday, February 26, 2025 - Colombian police apprehended a 40-year-old man attempting to smuggle several bags of cocaine concealed beneath a toupee attached to his head.
Police said the suspect was detained at Cartagena’s airport on Monday,
Feb. 24, as he prepared to board a flight to Amsterdam.
A scanner revealed he hid 220 grams of cocaine packaged in small bags, strategically placed under what authorities described as a “narco wig.”
Police estimate the street value of the drugs at approximately 10,000
euros in European markets.
A police video released on Monday captured the moment an officer,
wearing blue gloves, carefully removed the suspect’s wig with scissors,
revealing approximately a dozen packets of cocaine.
