Suspected drug dealer caught after barefoot rooftop escape in Spain

A dramatic rooftop chase unfolded in Lorca, Spain, as police attempted to dismantle a suspected drug den. The main suspect, the owner of the residence, fled upon detecting the police presence, embarking on a barefoot escape across multiple rooftops.

The man, who has a history of drug trafficking offenses, navigated a narrow ledge at a significant height to cross to an adjacent building's roof. He was eventually apprehended by National Police agents who had to follow his perilous route to capture him.

During a search of the suspect's home, officers discovered nearly 11,000 euros in cash, primarily in small denominations. They also found significant quantities of drugs, including 9.15 grams of cocaine base capable of producing about 90 doses, and 11.50 grams of heroin, enough for approximately 110 doses. Additionally, drug cutting and weighing paraphernalia, a machete, and a knuckle duster were seized.
