Haaland Cocaine

Police in Ecuador have seized 469.6 kilograms of cocaine, with some of the bricks bearing the image and name of Norwegian football star, Erling Haaland.

The drugs were reportedly hidden in a truck traveling through Tulcán, in the province of Carchi, near the Colombian border.

A Colombian woman was arrested and subsequently charged with alleged illicit trafficking of controlled substances.

Authorities clarified that there is no information linking Haaland to the shipment.

Reuters says the use of images, names, animals, brands, or other symbols on drug packages is a common practice in drug trafficking to identify different shipments.

The seized cocaine has an estimated value of over US$11 million in the United States and approximately €17 million in Europe.
