Palestinian man arrested in Tel Aviv carrying cocaine, heroin – report

A Palestinian man from the West Bank is under arrest Monday on suspicion that he was trafficking drugs to Tel Aviv.

Police officers notice the man, who has a valid work permit allowing him to enter Israel, walking to the backyard of an apartment building in southern Tel Aviv. When they confront him, they find him holding a sock filled with drugs, according to police.

The drugs are still being analyzed, but officials say an initial assessment found 24 grams of suspected cocaine and 55 grams of what officers believe to be heroin.

The man is also found carrying thousands of shekels in cash.
