Nespresso employees find unsuspected illicit bounty

More than 500 kg of cocaine was discovered in a shipment of coffee beans at a Nespresso factory in Fribourg, Switzerland, local police revealed on Thursday.

A group of workers at the factory, located in the town of Romont, discovered the white powder packaged in with bags of coffee beans freshly delivered from Brazil on Monday.
