Police arrest 50-year-old in Ischia with cocaine and €420 cash
A narcotest found some doses were sale or bicarbonate, adding to 21 more doses seized.
Carabinieri arrested a 50-year-old man from Alatri in Forio d’Ischia after finding cocaine and cash during a street check.
The suspect was carrying 2 doses of cocaine and €420 in cash. Officers also searched the B&B where he was staying and recovered 21 additional doses and another €260.
What made the case unusual was the narcotest result. Some of the substances tested as simple doses of sale and bicarbonate instead of cocaine.
The man is now in custody and will be required to answer for possession of drugs for the purpose of dealing. The Ischia incident follows a similar case reported on 25 October.
