A Colombian man has been arrested while boarding a flight from Cartagena to Amsterdam after police found cocaine stashed under his toupee.

The 40-year-old man was taken into custody last week at Rafael Nunez International Airport on suspicion of drug trafficking, manufacturing and carrying narcotic substances.

Authorities said he was found with 19 cocaine capsules valued at more than $10,000 hidden under his wig. He was caught after being screened through a scanner at the Colombian airport.

Video footage of the arrest showed officers cutting off the toupee from the man’s head, with several small packages of cocaine seen attached to the inside of the wig.

So he has to have a huge space in his head to hide that

Yes. I imagine it has a lever or something. Maybe remote controlled. Who knows.

He’s a coke head all right.

Hair-raising footage captured Colombian cops exposing a drug smuggler who had hidden $10,000 worth of cocaine under a wig glued to his head.

Sorry I stole these jokes from somewhere.

What I want to know is what happened in the moment where the airport security and cops were like, "Right we are making you bald now and you have no choice." 👩‍🦲

This is really strange story. Finding something worth $10,000 hidden like that must be very surprising
