When officers reached the address the man ran inside the house, and police at
the side of the property saw a bag thrown over the wall towards the back of the

crack, and in the wooded area the Canil’s sniffer dog K9 Bereta found the
discarded bag with portions of marijuana and cocaine.[1]Questioned, the
suspect admitted the drugs were his.[1]
Officers seized 25 portions of marijuana weighing 96 grams, and in the arrest
report the Cannabis sativa plant is listed as the drug seized.[1][2]The same
seizure took 98 bags of cocaine weighing about 100 grams and one crack stone of
77 grams; these weights are not counted as cannabis.[1][3]The man and all the
material were taken to the Central de Polícia, where an arrest in flagrante
(APF) for drug trafficking was recorded.[1]
