ALBUQUERQUE (AP) - Police got the drop on a drug suspect when the man dropped his stash wrapped in cash.
Hugo Suso-Dominguez, 23, was in line at a convenience store in front of two plainclothes officers when he dropped a dollar bill folded into a pouch Tuesday night, police said.
The officers, who had stopped at the store to get food while on a surveillance operation, recognized the pouch as a method of holding drugs.
One officer picked up the dollar, unfolded it and found white powder, which later tested positive for cocaine, according to a criminal complaint.
"Hugo looked back at us and the dollar bill, which was now open displaying the suspected cocaine. Hugo laughed and stated, 'That is mine' (in Spanish)," Det. Thomas Gutierrez said.
Suso-Dominguez was charged with possession with intent to distribute because there was about one-half ounce of cocaine in the pouch, police said. He was being held on a $2,500 bail.
