Authorities discover cocaine in Hamburg; eatery shuts down as a result. - Law enforcement officers raid infamous drug-ridden pub.
### Raid at the "Windstärke 11" Bar in Hamburg
One Wednesday afternoon, law enforcement officers entered a Hamburg underground bar. They promptly sealed off the entrance. At the time of the raid, there were ten patrons inside. However, seven suspicious individuals were also found outside the bar, who were caught and subjected to a thorough search along with identity verification.
The approximately 30 response units fared quite well in their search. They discovered 28 "saleable cocaine tears" on a 22-year-old, 15 more on a 45-year-old, and around 550 euros thought to be drug money. The police confiscated three phones from one of the suspects. Both were detained, but later released due to insufficient evidence. They also captured an illegal immigrant, who happened to be 21 years old, although he too was eventually released.
What's more, officers found an unclaimed bag among the patrons. It held 16 cocaine tears, ecstasy pills, and traces of marijuana.
Police dog "Lucy" was also able to locate a wallet which had 9 cocaine tears and 320 euros. This transaction was also seized.
Officers from the district office, accompanying the operation, also uncovered a fire protection violation. The "Windstärke 11" bar was temporarily closed.
