Naples. The ploy of hiding drugs in an electrical box didn't help the dealer on Via Ghisleri in Scxampia avoid arrest.
In fact, during their territorial control service, the officers of the General Prevention and Public Rescue Office, while passing through via Ghisleri, noticed a man who, after having taken a package from an electrical box, was about to deliver it to a person in exchange for money.
At that point the officers intervened and blocked the sale: the suspect was found in possession of a package of heroin and 2.655 euros, the clear proceeds of the criminal activity.
The officers then checked the electrical box where, well hidden in a sock , they found another 37 packages of the same substance weighing a total of approximately 22 grams and 38 packages of cocaine weighing approximately 22 grams.
The 36-year-old Neapolitan with a criminal record, including specific ones, was arrested on charges of illegal possession of narcotics.
