Cocaine dealer arrested and two police injured in Colleferro, Italy

Police from the Judicial Police Squad in Colleferro arrested a suspected cocaine dealer after observing a street transaction. The buyer resisted violently, striking two officers who required medical treatment, and the suspect fled before being apprehended again. Investigators recovered 12.6 g of cocaine, seized additional drugs and €250 in cash, and later secured further substances during house searches.

In the province of Fermo, Carabinieri conducted a series of anti‑drug operations targeting youth gathering spots and main roads. They seized methadone, hashish and other drugs, and reported several arrests ranging from a 17‑year‑old with a hashish‑filled cigarette to a 27‑year‑old found with metadone bottles. One driver lost his licence after possession was discovered, and a 22‑year‑old North African cyclist was also detained for a small amount of hashish.
