An unusual police operation in Peru has drawn attention for the spectacular way in which undercover agents managed to break into a house used as a drug distribution point. To avoid arousing suspicion, one of the officers disguised himself as a student, while his colleague posed as a disabled person sitting in a wheelchair.

Footage of the intervention shows the agent, disguised as a student, with a backpack, pushing the cart towards the apartment where members of a drug trafficking gang were suspected of operating. At one point, he gives a signal to his colleague and says: “Get up, Lazarus”. Immediately after this, the man who had been standing in the cart until that moment stands up, takes out a hidden hammer and starts hitting the door and fence of the apartment to allow the police to enter.

According to reports in Colombian media outlet El Tiempo, this was part of a well-thought-out strategy by the police to avoid detection of the operation. A school and a hospital were located near the apartment, so the agents took advantage of the usual movements of people in the area to approach without being noticed. The operation was prepared after one of the undercover officers had previously carried out a cocaine purchase, providing evidence of the suspected criminal activity and creating the conditions for the intervention of the rest of the police force.

Thanks to this maneuver, the officers managed to enter the building and surprise the people inside. At the end of the operation, three members of the gang “Los Santurrones de San Juan” were arrested, while hundreds of doses of cocaine were seized from the apartment. The operation has been particularly commented on for the unusual disguise of the agents and the moment when the person who was supposed to be paralyzed suddenly got up from the wheelchair to help open the way to the apartment.
