Dope! Palma drug dealer in Spain’s sunny isle of Mallorca tries selling coke to cops

Detenido En Palma

An unfortunate drug dealer committed the cardinal sin among narcos when he attempted to sell cocaine to police officers. 

The bumbling pusher, 39, from Senegal, was operating from his corner in Paseo del Born in Palma, Mallorca – a boulevard popular with visitors to the city – when he sized up the wrong potential customers.

He approached the two police officers in plain clothes and attempted to befriend them, telling them he had been selling drugs in the region for several years.
