Photos of fake cocaine dealer released

The police have released pictures of the man suspected of selling white heroin as cocaine to tourists in Amsterdam. Last week three Danish tourists, aged 21, 22 and 24 years, were sickened after using white heroin they thought was cocaine. The police found the victims on Leidsekruisstraat. They were taken to the hospital for treatment and have since been released. The police have released pictures of the man from which the tourists allegedly bought the dangerous drug. The transaction took place on Stadhouderskade. The police are looking to talk to anyone who may recognize this man or has any information about him. This drug killed 3 people and hospitalized 17 others last year.
