There aren’t many places to hide cocaine in a skateboard, but a 33-year-old Australian man found a way. And then customs officers found the coke.
From theaustralian.com: “The man was charged with attempting to import a marketable quantity of a border-controlled drug, which carries a maximum penalty of 25 years imprisonment and/or a $550,000 fine.”’
600 grams is considered a “marketable quantity,” I guess. That’s 1.3 pounds, about the weight of a sneaker.

1.3 pounds? It must have been one of those longboards. I think some of those actually have “weed stash compartments,” but the coke thing is kind of a surprise. Can’t remember the episode of Miami Vice where Crockett and Tubbs were chasing guys on longboard skateboards.
