Bodycam captures drug trafficker’s ‘hysterical screams’ after police wake him up
By: -----
Birmingham, UK - Police bodycam footage captured Asa McIntosh, 21, being woken by a female police officer after they foiled a county line drug operation he was part of.
Mr McIntosh appears to be fast asleep on a settee when the officer shouts “police” and shines a torch at his face.
But the drug dealer then begins screaming before the officer begins shouting his arrest details.
Mr McIntosh was part of a busy drugs ring with six others known as the ‘P Line’ which was worth over a million pounds, a court heard.
They supplied Class A drugs including heroin and crack cocaine across Smethwick, Wednesbury, Walsall, and Birmingham.
Thousands of amused people have since commented on social media, making fun of Mr McIntosh reaction to being arrested after the video was posted online.
One said: “Mugged him right off at the beginning of video lol he’ll never live that down.”
Another commented: “Fancy waking him up while he was mid-way through dreaming of being on oblivion at Alton Towers.”
One other said: “He screamed like a girl.”
Another said: “He thought it was aliens coming to visit him.”
West Midlands Police County Lines Taskforce (CLTF) launched an investigation into the drug line in 2023, a court heard.
Detectives found that the phones used to run the line would receive and send out thousands of calls and messages.
