Caught with a cocaine carry-all

Some stories speak for themselves:

A woman tried to fly from Chile to Spain with two suitcases that were made out of cocaine.

The drug "was not hidden in the luggage. This time the suitcases were the drug," Detective Leandro Morales of the Santiago airport said yesterday.

Morales said the suitcases were made of a substance combining cocaine with resin and glass fiber. A "chemical process" could be used to separate out the drug.

The prospective traveler- a 24-year-old Argentine woman- was promptly arrested. Had she delivered the suitcases as planned she would have received over $5000.
