Holloway Teen Jailed After Police Discover Crack in His Bum

We have 18-year-old David Escobar, of Crayford Road, to thank for creating the perfect combination of illicit drugs and body parts, essentially handing the subs at the Islington Gazette the best headline of the week on a silver platter. From the paper:

David Escobar, 18, of Crayford Road, Holloway, had nine “bum” wraps of the Class A narcotic stuffed between his buttock cheeks when he was stopped not far from his home.

During a strip search at the police station, officers also found Escobar had three wraps of heroin in his backside.

Lucky for us, the sub who wrote that headline didn’t focus on those wraps of heroin. And, lucky for whomever wrote that headline, apparently Mr. Escobar has quite the ample bum.
