Breaking Bad-style stash of crystal meth ‘discovered at cinema’ in the seaside town of Bognor

A BREAKING Bad-style stash of crystal meth has allegedly been discovered at a cinema in the seaside town of Bognor. 

The find was made when police raided the Grade II Picturedrome, which has been closed in lockdown, on Thursday.

A house in the area is also understood to have been raided. Police say two men, aged 34 and 29, have been arrested on suspicion of drug offences. 

A source said: “It’s shocked everybody. It’s all very dramatic. Bognor is a sleepy seaside town with a low crime rate. Very little happens here. 

“Some locals have now nicknamed us Breaking Bognor. It’s unbelievable.

“It’s not a town known for drug busts or the criminal underworld like Breaking Bad.” TV hit Breaking Bad tells the story of chemistry teacher Walter White, played by Bryan Cranston, who starts producing addictive crystal meth after learning he has lung cancer.

Last night, a neighbour of the house that was raided in the West Sussex town said: “The police were here all day and night. We knew it was a drugs raid and the talk was that it was crystal meth.

“I saw a load of drug paraphernalia spread out in the back room. There were pipes and lots of little glass bottles. The talk is that crystal meth was found in the house and at the cinema. 

‘’To be honest the guy who lives there is the last person I would think of as a Walter White type.”

Last night, the 34-year-old man’s mother and his solicitor refused to comment.
