Drug suspect peed on himself to dissolve heroin

SCRANTON, Pa. - Police say a Pennsylvania drug suspect urinated in his pants in the hope that it would dissolve the heroin and cocaine in his pocket.

The (Scranton) Times-Tribune said 42-year-old Wesley Autrey sold heroin Tuesday during an undercover sting in Scranton.

When police tried to arrest him afterward, they said he struggled and had to be subdued with a stun gun.

Police said Autrey then began urinating in his pants in an attempt to dissolve the drugs. But he was unsuccessful and they found five small bags of heroin, four small bags of cocaine and $3,000 in cash.

Online court records don't list an attorney for Autrey. He remained in the Lackawanna County jail Thursday unable to post bond.
