Never, ever order your bologna from Puerto Rico. You never know what might be inside of it.
Coke hidden in meat lands Mass. man in trouble
Boston.comHOLYOKE, Mass.—A Massachusetts man has been arrested after a kilogram of cocaine hidden inside a hollowed out chunk of bologna was delivered to his home.
Holyoke police say they were tipped off by postal inspectors in Puerto Rico who had been investigating similar shipments. A dog confirmed the presence of drugs and the bologna was cut open.
The meat was then repackaged and an undercover postal inspector delivered it to a Holyoke address at about 4:45 p.m. on Thursday where a woman sitting on the front steps signed for it.
Police then executed a search warrant and arrested 30-year-old Juan Rodriguez on a cocaine trafficking charge.
He is scheduled to be arraigned Friday. It was not immediately clear if he had a lawyer.
Police say the cocaine had a street value of $100,000. The investigation is ongoing.
He is scheduled to be arraigned Friday. It was not immediately clear if he had a lawyer.
