Record cocaine haul found hidden inside a stone crusher in Luxembourg

Luxembourg authorities seized almost a ton of cocaine hidden in a stone crusher "of Colombian origin" in a record bust for the small European state, prosecutors said on Wednesday.

Police detained two suspects after they discovered white powder worth up to 160 million euros ($165 million) inside the machine on Thursday last week.

It took forensics police almost a week to extract all the packages stashed inside the crusher's three rollers, after the apparatus was taken to a safe location for dismantling, officials said.
