Spanish police seize cocaine and arrest dealers in La Palma and Málaga

In La Palma, the Guardia Civil detained a man suspected of drug trafficking after a citizen tip led to surveillance of a vehicle. Officers seized 28.5 g of cocaine, €770 in cash and, during a later search of the suspect’s shop, found an additional 29.9 g of MDMA prepared for sale. The man was placed in provisional prison pending judicial proceedings.

In Málaga, local police halted a tavern waiter they suspected of selling cocaine to customers. After observing a suspected exchange, officers detained the waiter and the driver of a nearby vehicle, recovering a small bag of powdery substance identified as cocaine. Both arrests are part of ongoing operations targeting street‑level drug sales in the region.
