Drug dealer caught after Breaking Bad-themed idea doesn’t go to plan

Breaking Bad can give an amateur drug dealer plenty of wild ideas.

The award-winning show is so adventurous in its plotting that you’d need to really lack imagination if your main takeaway from watching the box-set was to use the DVD boxes to hide your stash.

But that was the not-so-bright idea that led one dealer to get caught by Blackpool Police, with the force sharing a photo of the haul on Twitter.

We’re starting to think the criminal didn’t even watch the series.
