Vigo: Police seals drug den by bricking up its entrances
The National Police sealed a dwelling in Vigo that had been used as a drug sales point, according to Google News ES — Crime (es) citing the newspaper Faro de Vigo.
The intervention consisted of the physical closure of the property through the sealing of its entrances, a measure designed to prevent the premises from continuing to operate as a distribution point for narcotics in the Galician city.
The action forms part of routine police operations against so-called drug dens, dwellings that are occupied or provided for the sale of drugs in residential areas. The authorities have not yet provided data on possible arrests or on the type of substances being traded inside the property.
The sealing of properties with illicit activity is a method that the National Police applies in different Spanish municipalities to put an end to the operation of these sales points.
