HELL TOUPEE: Police uncover 19 cocaine capsules under man’s toupee.
A Colombian man has been arrested after trying to smuggle 200 grams of cocaine under a toupee on a flight from Cartagena to Amsterdam.
The 40-year-old suspect’s wig contained 19 cocaine capsules valued at more than €10,000 (£8,290), according to local authorities.
The suspect was arrested at Rafael Nunez International Airport on suspicion of trafficking, manufacturing and carrying narcotic substances. He was taken into custody in Cartagena.
Footage released by local police showed an officer wearing hospital gloves cutting through the toupee with scissors, which covered the suspect’s shaved head.
More than a dozen packets of cocaine were strapped to the toupee, protected by a plastic coat.
Could that be what’s under the hood of the legendary Shatner Turbo 2000?
