A 29-year-old man was arrested on Tuesday night, October 1, in Coimbra, on suspicion of drug trafficking. The individual tried to flee from authorities when the Public Security Police (PSP) approached to detain him.
In a desperate attempt to escape prison, the suspect threw a bag with cocaine at the PSP agents. The attempt to get rid of the drug was unsuccessful, as he was ultimately intercepted and detained by the authorities.
The man was placed in preventive detention following the arrest, meaning he will remain in provisional prison while the proceedings continue. Authorities continue to investigate the case to determine all details related to the suspect's criminal activity.
