Man held with 200 stunguns, 6,000 Viagra pills

It must have been quite a party that the man from Enschede was brewing, when he was arrested Friday night with 200 stunguns, 6,000 Viagra pills, narcotics, fake brand-name merchandise and €5,000 in cash.

Marechaussee say the arrest was made by officers carrying out a joint anti cross-border-crime patrol on the N35 in Enschede with Customs officers. They first found the stunguns after pulling the 50-year-old man’s car over. His arrest prompted a search of his house and company in the city, where officers found hundreds of fake brand name watches, bags and clothing. They also found the 6,000 Viagra pills and a vial probably containing probably illegal drugs, as well as the cash. Everything was confiscated and the man was detained at the Marechaussee station at the eastern border.
