Jelenia Góra criminal investigators and officers from the Prevention Department arrested a 36-year-old man suspected of possessing drugs and unintentionally handling stolen property. – The arrest followed operational activities conducted by police officers. The officers received information that the man might be storing psychotropic substances in his apartment – explains Senior Constable Łukasz Porębski from the Wrocław Provincial Police Headquarters. – As a result, a decision was made to search his apartment. A police dog handler with a service dog trained to detect various drugs was also involved in the operation.
During the search of the 36-year-old’s apartment, the officers found a crystalline substance. The spokesperson: – An on-site test confirmed that the substance was nothing other than methamphetamine, from which more than 50 retail doses could be obtained.
However, that was not the end of the man’s problems. The officer:
In the course of the activities, police officers found in one of the rooms belonging to the arrested man a mountain bike that had been stolen in Warsaw as early as 2023.
The man was arrested and charged with drug possession and unintentionally handling stolen property. He faces up to 5 years in prison for the offenses committed.
The spokesperson sums up:
Police officers are thoroughly clarifying all the circumstances of the case, including the origin of the drugs and how the suspect came into possession of the stolen bicycle.
The service dog – Modena – made a significant contribution to the discovery of the drugs. It is worth noting here that police service dogs play a key role in ensuring public safety and order, constituting an integral element of modern police structures. The presence of service dogs provides indispensable support to officers in their daily activities, both preventive and operational.
Police service dogs are quiet heroes whose dedication and commitment, beyond their routine duties, contribute every day to protecting citizens’ lives and health. Their work, although often unnoticed, is invaluable and constitutes an integral part of the success of the modern Police.
