Florida Man’s “Chili Powder” Packs A Real Wallop
DATELINE – Clearwater FL
Driving with a revoked license is pretty stupid.
Driving with a revoked license with a large clear bag containing nearly 30 GRAMS OF HEROIN is REALLY stupid.
And yet, that’s exactly what Florida Man Daniel Barrera was doing last week.
When police stopped Barrera on the revoked license charge, they noticed a bag in the car filled with some kind of powder that Barrera said was some chili, sent to him by family members in Guatamala.
Maybe chili powder from Guatemala isn’t red like it is everywhere else in the world, because the cops noticed the color and immediately sent it for testing.
The result was a whopping 29.7 grams of heroin.
Barrera was charged with driving with a revoked license, trafficking narcotics, and is also probably looking at a probation violation from a prior DUI conviction.
