ADDICTS DIG FOR DRUG TREASURE

A day after police dug up a cache of drugs, guns and ammunition, drug
addicts in Cedros have reportedly moved onto the beach in search of more
illegal treasure.

Cedros Police said that reports on continuing police searches along the
beaches in Icacos Village, Cedros were untrue.

Assistant Police Commissioner Dennis Graham said as far as he was aware,
the police search was over, and they had found what they were looking for.

On Friday morning, police officers, some wearing hoods and heavily armed,
stormed onto Los Gallos Beach, and dug up ten kilogrammes of cocaine, three
handguns and more than 100 rounds of ammunition.

A police officer at the Cedros Station said that the only activity on the
beach yesterday were "sprangers who sleep there last night and start
digging holes all about looking for drugs to smoke. They not breaking any laws".
