If you thought I was talking about crack - as in cocaine - you were right!
A man Guatemala was arrested in a Virginia airport dec.4 for carrying a cooked chicken stuffed with more than four thousand dollars worth of cocaine.
I originally found the news on Canadian Press' newswire but here is the article from a web URL:

Customs officials say the 32-year-old Guatemalan citizen was detained at Dulles International Airport in McLean, Va., last Saturday after authorities found 60.4 grams of cocaine inside a fully-cooked chicken he was carrying on a flight coming from El Salvador.
When inspectors examined the cooked poultry, they found a white powdery substance inside two small plastic bags stored inside the chicken's cavity.
The drugs have a street value of about $4,300, officials said.
While unusual, last weekend's episode is certainly not rare. In fact, one may be surprised at the lengths people continue to go to conceal narcotics.

Haha, what a guy!...
I guess he was thinking the idea wasn't going to be suspicious but that's more of something people do when travelling on a bus. I mean, who brings a whole chicken to a flight? Haha, what a guy!

A friend of mine flew on an Aeroflot flight in Russia next to an old woman carrying in her lap... wait for it... a pot of soup.
ReplyDeleteit's really the best way to transport soup MLL, having the pot on her lap keeps the soup in just the right temperature too :)
