A pack of wild boars just ruined the grand plan of drug dealers in Tuscany, Italy, in the worst possible way. In a remote stretch of woodland in Tuscany, the pack of boars dug up and destroyed a Rs 15.7 lakh worth of stash of cocaine, buried by drug dealers.
According to a Telegraph report, the drugs discovered were of 'Class A' category and the gang of hapless villains was busted, after police officers tapped their phones.

What made things worse for the group - which was made up of an Italian and three Albanians - was when they realized that sealed container of cocaine (that they had carefully buried) had been unearthed and torn open by curious boars.
All four alleged members of the gang were arrested on charges of drug trafficking and the investigators claim they were selling 2 kg of cocaine every month in the surrounding bars.

They were pretty popular in the drug circles and were active from September 2018 to March 2019 and charged Rs 7,876 a gram for high-purity cocaine.
Apart from 'ruining' the drug dealers' grand plan, the wild boars are apparently wreaking havoc on the daily lives of residents in Tuscany.
Reports state that farmers in Rome have been protesting over the animals, claiming they are 'destroying their land and causing fatal car accidents'. ¡°It is no longer just a question of compensation but a matter of personal safety and it must be resolved,¡± said Coldiretti Ettore Prandini, President of Italy's farming association.
Prandini said there are about two million hogs in Italy currently.
"Ministries and leaders of regions and municipalities must act in a concerted manner to draw up an extraordinary plan without administrative obstacles, otherwise the problem is destined to get worse," he added.
In another weird 'cocaine menace', beaches in France are mysteriously being inundated with packets of pure Cocaine, with nearly 1000 kilograms discovered since mid-October.
Reports say the drug parcels have been appearing along the country's Atlantic coast, with some packages being found as far south as the resort town of Biarritz.
The only solution cops had, was to shut off the beaches for the public, to stop cocaine hunters from stealing the packets being washed ashore.
