On Friday, 6 November 2026, officers of the Criminal Department of the Łask County Police Headquarters were carrying out checks aimed at drug crime.[1] At about 20:50 they stopped a Mercedes on Leśników Polskich street in Łask, after noticing that the people in the car were nervous while officers checked their identities.[1] They found zip-lock bags of a white crystalline substance on a 45-year-old resident of Łask County and detained him.[1] A search of his flat and outbuildings then turned up more drugs.[1][2] Preliminary tests identified the seized substances as mephedrone and marijuana.[1] Police said they seized more than 32 grams of drugs in that case, including more than 27 grams of mephedrone and just under 5 grams of marijuana.[3]

The same evening, at about 21:10, another patrol from the criminal department was in a forest complex in Dąbrówka and saw an Opel with four men inside.[1] One of the men handed officers a bag of white powder, and a search of the car found more drugs that another man admitted possessing.[1][2] Tests identified that substance as mephedrone, and officers detained two residents of Łask County, aged 26 and 47.[1]

All three detained men were taken to a police room for detained persons.[1][2] The next day they were charged with possession of drugs.[1][2] Police said they face a penalty of up to three years in prison.[1][2] The account was signed by junior aspirant Bartłomiej Kozłowski.[1]
