Man tried to smuggle $34,000 worth of cocaine under his toupee, police say​

TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) – A Colombian man was detained in Barcelona after he reportedly tried to smuggle about $34,000 worth of cocaine under a poorly-fitted toupee, Reuters reported Tuesday.

Police said the man caught their attention when he arrived on a flight from Bogota on June 18 and appeared nervous.

Officers had the man remove his wig and found a package stuck to his head with about $34,000 worth of cocaine, authorities said.

“There is no limit to the inventiveness of drug traffickers trying to mock controls,” the Spanish National Police said in a statement.

The statement included a photo of a middle-aged man in a wig with his eyes blocked out, but police gave no more details regarding his identity.

The man was charged with a public health violation. It’s unclear if he is still in police custody.

The dent in this one's head would have been more sufficient for smuggling the package.

It certainly was a bald move.

he tried to escape on a yacht but was strand-ed out at sea. he was originally a electrician, big fan of plugs.

 

[Star-Lord]

I hear he dyed at sea.

what a tragic split-end to the story

 

[HoodWinked]

it's hilarious that they made him model what it looked like.

 

[lifa-cobex]

That's using the old noggin.

 

[Star-Lord]

That's using the old noggin.

If he was truly smart enough, he could’ve avoided this hair-raising situation. Instead, he’s got toupee the price.

 

[Cockles & Whelks]

Apparently female smugglers are on the rise, but I guess this attempt is Just for Men.

 

[Jaysen]

He’s gonna get raped in prison…I mean hair joke!

 

[dr_octagon]

all these hair jokes are lame and you should be ashamed.

Maybe he was born for it, maybe it’s Maybelline.

Just close the thread, it's done

 

[SubZero_Wins]

I hope his family wished him Locks of love.

 

[DoomGyver]

He'll fit right in at prison. He's already familiar with being stuck between a rock and a hard place.

Queuing for dinner in prison will be a doddle, he already knows how to form an orderly line.

No doubt, this takes the crown.

He had to have known it would go wrong at some point. You know what they say. Hair today, gone tomorrow.

He's probably hoping this will all get swept under the rug.

 

[*Nightwing]

His sheer genius is inspiring. His optimism surely flies on the razors edge.

 

[Star-Lord]

If only someone had had the sense to polish his head and look into the future.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

At least there was a reason it was that bad. Imagine if you were bald and paid good money for horse plugs looking like that.

 

[A.M.A.K]

He should have hired Carlos 'Halfy' Rodriguez
