the essential
Last weekend, Tarbes police arrested several individuals for drug-related offenses. Including a man who admitted to smoking between 15 and 20 joints per day.
Last Saturday, in the Arsenal district, the police notified a motorist who, upon seeing them, fled. A chase then begins, and the motorist ends up losing control and hits a low wall, without gravity. He was found in possession of 14 bags of MDMA, otherwise ecstasy. The man, aged 34, explained that it was for his “personal consumption with friends”. And he must have used it, since he tested positive for ecstasy, but also for cocaine and cannabis. But curiously, while he recognizes the other facts (possession of narcotics and refusal to comply), he refutes drug consumption, even though the tests are formal… He will answer for his actions before the criminal court. Another motorist was arrested on Sunday evening while driving without lights. After a check, it turned out that he was driving despite having his license revoked, and he tested positive for cocaine. Tried in the CRPC, he went directly to prison for 6 months.
15 to 20 joints per day!
And then on Saturday evening, the police arrested a 45-year-old man, who was returning home with quite a load: in his backpack, no less than 1 kilo of cannabis. He explained that since a bicycle accident which left him with after-effects, he has had back pain and is “treating” himself with cannabis. In high doses, since he admitted to smoking between 15 and 20 joints per day. Probably a little less in the days to come, his “medicine” was seized from him…
