Police in southwest China’s Yunnan province have seized more than 12 kilograms of crystal methamphetamine, said local authorities on Sunday.
According to a statement by the public security bureau of Ximeng Wa autonomous county, police found a man driving an unlicensed motorcycle last Wednesday who appeared suspicious. When police asked him to stop for a check, the man ran off.
Police didn’t catch him, but found a blue bag he dropped with 12.43 kilograms of the drug inside.
Police are still hunting for the man.
The Ximeng county, on the border of China with Myanmar, is close to the opium-producing Golden Triangle.
