MADRID (AP) - Spanish police have arrested a 66-year-old Chilean who tried to smuggle drugs into Barcelona with a cast made of cocaine fitted on a truly broken leg, an official said Friday.
The man also had cocaine hidden in six beer cans that had been emptied, packed with drugs and resealed, and inside the legs of two small folding stools, police said.
Altogether, he was carrying about 5 kilograms (11 pounds) of the drug, police said.
The man was arrested Wednesday at Barcelona's El Prat airport after arriving from Santiago, Chile.
His left shin was broken, and investigators do not rule out the possibility that the injury was inflicted intentionally so he could smuggle with the cocaine cast.
