Now you know the price of gas is high...
CHICAGO (AFP) - First came the airlines, then the pizza delivery drivers. Now, even drug dealers are charging a fuel surcharge.
An Indiana dealer asked a customer to pay him an extra 25 dollars "for gas money to deliver the cocaine," court documents showed.
They were meeting about 20 miles (32 kilometers) away from the dealer's home in Hammond, Indiana, according to documents posted on The Smoking Gun website Thursday.
With gas (petrol) retailing at about four dollars a gallon (3.79 liters), the dealer likely made a small profit on the fuel charge.
That didn't stop him from raising his price by 10 dollars a week later when he demanded 250 dollars for 7.5 grams of coke. He did, however, promise a police informant that the price would drop to 230 dollars "next time."
Anthony Salinas was charged with two counts of dealing in cocaine on September 8, the court documents showed.
