Giant Cloud Of (What's Likely Pot) Smoke Hangs Over Europe's 'Cannabis Capital' Amid Massive Police Raid
According to the Associated Press, "plumes of pungent smoke" blanketed the Albanian village of Lazarat Tuesday. The smoke allegedly came from villagers burning their stashes of cannabis ahead of a massive police raid.
Lazarat, said to be the largest illegal marijuana producer in Europe, produces some 900 tons of cannabis annually, according to the BBC. That's estimated to be worth about $6 billion -- equal to about half of Albania's total gross domestic product, the outlet notes.
Hundreds of Albanian police stormed the village this week in the hope of ridding the town of drug gangs.
A police statement Thursday said officers have established control throughout the village, per the AP. About 13 tons of marijuana and 80,000 plants were reportedly seized and destroyed in the raid.
