Hilarious! Notorious Drug Dealer Arrested After Mistaking Police Car for Taxi

 

An alleged drug dealer in Copenhagen received an unwanted surprise for Christmas when he jumped into the back of a taxi with about 1,000 joints on him, only to find it was a police car.

 

Danish police said the man was rushing home when he made the grave error.

 

The mistake occurred in Christiana, a semi-autonomous district of the capital founded by hippies in the 1970s and known as a centre for the drug trade.

 

Police said the man could face a custodial sentence.

 

The full statement from the force earlier in the week read: “Last night a cannabis dealer from Christiania who wanted to get home quickly got into a taxi. He received a big surprise when he realised it was actually a police car he was sitting in.

 

Cannabis is illegal in Denmark, with prohibitions on dealing and possession.

 

Police have carried out a number of raids in the Christiana district in recent months, mostly seeking out drug dealers rather than the other way around.
