According to the police report, the two men from Tenerife and Gran Canaria, took ‘evasive action’ when they saw the presence of the police, who were carrying out spot checks, by stopping and reversing away from them.
However, they found they were blocked in by vehicles behind them so tried to turn around to get away throwing the bag out of the window.
