The Guardia Civil conducted a police operation in Almoradí aimed at tackling drug trafficking in nightlife areas. During this operation, two young men were arrested for allegedly selling chloroethane outside a popular nightclub. The arrests took place on the first of March after officers spotted suspicious behaviour around a parked vehicle.

Witnesses reported several individuals approaching the car, engaging briefly in conversation, and exchanging money for small white boxes. Upon further investigation, agents discovered that some buyers were inhaling the contents from spray cans, raising concerns about the nature of the substance.

Upon conducting a search, officers seized thirty-three cans of chloroethane, six point seven grams of hashish, and two hundred seventy-five euros in cash. The accused, aged twenty-three and twenty-six, face charges related to public health violations.

The Guardia Civil reiterates the dangers of inhaling substances like chloroethane, which can lead to serious health risks, including loss of consciousness and respiratory issues when combined with alcohol. Authorities remain committed to combatting drug trafficking and promoting awareness of the associated risks in entertainment venues.
