A woman in her 20s who took methamphetamine at home was caught by the police while receiving treatment at the hospital for symptoms of breathing difficulties.
On the 14th, Gwangju West Police Station arrested A on charges of purchasing and administering psychotropic drugs (violation of the Narcotics Management Act). Junior B, who took the drug together, also applied the same charge and was booked without detention.
They are accused of administering methamphetamine at the home of Mr. A in Seo-gu, Gwangju, around 4 pm on the 10th.
It is reported that while the two were taking methamphetamine, junior B showed symptoms of breathing difficulties, and Mr. A called 911. In the process of transporting him to the hospital, the ambulance crew, who thought B’s words and actions were strange, requested the police for cooperation, and the crime was discovered.
As a result of the police investigation, both of them tested positive for drugs in a simple reagent test.
Person A is known to have stated in a police investigation that “I bought a methamphetamine worth 300,000 won through an online messenger app.”
The police plan to investigate the exact circumstances of drug distribution through Mr. A’s communication records.
