Double Trouble

A drunk driver was stopped by the Guardia Civil in a routine check in the Orihuela area last week, and besides being over the alcohol limit, he and his two friends were found to have had 162 grams of amphetamines stuffed down the left side of the car.

Suspicious Guardia officers pulled over the car at La Aparecida on the N-340, and they spotted a package, which ended up being the white powdered drug in a plastic bag, said to be worth around three thousand euro.
