Man Hid Crack in Penis
LOUISVILLE, KY. February 3, 2011-- A Fairdale man faces charges after Louisville Metro Corrections officers said they discovered suspected crack cocaine in the foreskin of his penis. According to the arrest report, officers asked Antoine Banks if he had any drugs, weapons or contraband on him as he entered Metro Corrections after his arrest. He told them he didn’t, police said. During a clothed pat-down, officers said they found a small bag of suspected cocaine tied to the waistband of Banks’ boxers. After that bag was found, a strip search was ordered, according to the arrest report. During the strip search, another small bag was in the foreskin of his penis, police said. Police said Banks was originally arrested after a traffic stop led to the discovery of a bag of salvia and liquid codeine. Banks arrested on charges of second-degree possession of a controlled substance first offense and possession of synthetic cannabinoid agonists or piperazines. Banks is now facing additional charges of trafficking a controlled substance and promoting contraband. Banks isn't the first person accused of using their body as a stash spot. Last year, officers at a Florida jail observed a plastic baggie containing Xanax fall from a female suspect's privates while she showered. And it's not just drugs that people hide on their persons. In December, police in Oklahoma arrested two women on shoplifting charges after the suspects allegedly hid $2,600 worth of footwear, denim and accessories under rolls of fat on their stomachs and beneath their breasts. |
