Police in Toledo, Spain, have arrested a man they say is the kingpin of heroin smuggling to the country, smashing the organization he has led for years.
The “Spanish Pablo Escobar of heroin,” as police referred to him, was arrested on Jan. 16. Police described him as the ringleader based in Toledo who made “large imports” from the Netherlands. He is accused of distributing heroin to parts of central and western Spain.
