Two youths, aged eighteen and twenty, have been arrested in Palafrugell for an alleged public health offense, following a joint investigation by the Mossos d'Esquadra and the Local Police.

The investigation, which began nearly two months ago based on information received by the police, focused on a property in the town center suspected of being used for drug dealing.
Officers identified two men who, according to the investigation, used the residence to sell small doses of hashish and marijuana to consumers. Sales occurred inside the home, in the building's entrance, and in the surrounding areas, causing insecurity among residents.
During surveillance, investigators observed several buyers arriving at the property on foot, by bicycle, or by scooter to purchase substances before leaving. Police seized doses of hashish and marijuana from several of these individuals.

"Sales took place inside the residence, in the entrance, and in the surrounding areas, causing insecurity among residents."
