A 51-year-old man is recovering after surgeons removed 27 bags of heroin from his gut. The man fell ill at an airport and had to be rushed to the hospital. Here’s where things get nutty...
Surgeons were able to remove a total of 27 bags of heroin from a Lynn man’s stomach and intestines on Tuesday, officials have reported.
Captain of Salem police Conrad Prosniewski said Rodriguez experience illness while he has having dinner at Lynn. The man then went to the hospital with symptoms of drug overdose.
The medical staff took over his care, but when they saw that there were foreign materials in the patient’s stomach, they called the police department.
So the guy ingests 27 bags of heroin and HE’S HUNGRY?!? If I accidentally swallow the sticker off an apple my gut is churning for a week. Wasn’t he afraid airport grub would make him shit it out?
The police thinks that one of the bags got destroyed inside the body of Rodriguez, causing him to experience signs and symptoms of drug overdose. The total street value of the 27 bags of heroin collected from Rodriguez’ body is approximately more than $16,000.
The doctors removed 163 grams of heroin and one half digested slice of Sbarro’s pizza. Probably.
