Police officer dressed as the Grinch leads drug raid in Peru

An undercover police officer wearing a Grinch costume has conducted a drug bust in Lima, Peru.

Video distributed by the National Police Office shows officers smashing in a door before entering a house.

Three people were arrested and several small packages of cocaine were found during the raid, the police said.

The Lima Police Department is known for using costumed agents.

An officer dressed as a teddy bear pounced on a suspected drug dealer during a Valentine’s Day operation earlier this year.
