KANSAS CITY - What should have been a celebratory event turned into a
drug bust. When a 23-year-old man's wife went into labor at their
apartment, he immediately called 911 and told the operator they needed
an ambulance. He was in such a frenzied state that he neglected to
tell them it was for a pregnancy. So, police were called to the scene
first. When they reached the apartment, the door was ajar so they
entered the premises. By this point, the place was empty, On their way
out, the police noticed a brick of pressed powder on the kitchen
table, sitting next to scales. Investigators determined the "powder"
to be almost $12,000 worth of cocaine. They found $3,500 more in
cocaine in the kitchen. In the meantime, husband and wife gave birth
in the hospital. Later that night, the husband returned home with
relatives, where police were waiting to slap the bracelets on him and
book him in the country jail. They will still need to speak with the
new mother.
