Guardia Civil in Huercal Overa have arrested two local residents for dealing cocaine. The attention of the Guardia Civil was drawn to the unusual number of people from outside the area coming and going from the home of the two suspects. Agents watching the dwelling observed the transit of various people to and from the house, where they stayed only brief periods of time. They also observed the suspects frequently leaving the house for brief periods and deduced from the behviour that the dwelling could be a distribution point for drugs, using a method commonly known in Spain as ‘Tele-coca’, that is, ordering cocaine by means of telephone calls between the dealers and trusted customers.As a result of investigations, one of the two suspects, identified by the Guardia Civil as Pierre Pablo H.V., was stopped in the street and, when he was found to be in possession of seven wraps of cocaine, with a total weight of 5.2 grams, he was arrested on suspicion of drug dealing. His partner, identified as Francy E.D., was arrested while waiting for him outside their home. As a result of their arrests a search warrant was granted and, in the couple’s home, agents found wraps of cocaine ready for sale with a total weight of 20.1 grams, together with precision scales and 1,800 euros in cash.
