Albese con Cassano (Como), the State Police arrested a 46-year-old Moroccan with a criminal record for drug dealing and resisting a public official
Yesterday afternoon, the State Police arrested a 46-year-old Moroccan man, illegally residing in the country, with a criminal record for similar crimes and without a fixed abode, for drug dealing and resisting a public official.
In the course of operations aimed at combating the phenomenon of drug dealing, the Como Flying Squad, on specific instructions from Como Police Chief Marco Calì, has arranged for blanket checks to be carried out in the wooded areas between the municipalities of Alzate Brianza (Como) and Albavilla (Como), where reports of illicit drug dealing activities are more consistent.
Therefore, yesterday afternoon, the agents of the Flying Squad skillfully cordoned off the affected wooded areas, closing the net in a wood in Albese con Cassano (Como), where the 46-year-old Moroccan was busy packaging doses of drugs to sell at retail.
The police intervention was lightning-fast and precise but caused the man to flee quickly through the thick vegetation, pursued by the men of the mobile squad who, after a few meters and after having recovered a black bag that the Moroccan had gotten rid of, stopped the man. At the time of the arrest, a fight broke out in which the 46-year-old attacked one of the officers, spraying him in the face with a pepper spray he had with him.
Inside the black bag the officers found 55 grams of cocaine, 37 grams of heroin, 46 grams of hashish, 1100 euros and a precision scale, as well as material for packaging the doses.
Taken to the police station, the man was identified precisely and, also on the basis of his multiple specific criminal records, arrested for drug dealing and resisting a public official.
Notified of the arrest, the prosecutor on duty ordered that he be taken to the Como prison.
