Episode 10
The two-year search for the man behind seven kilos of cocaine left on a small plane in Yorkshire ends when the fugitive turns up, soaking wet, on a beach in Gibraltar.
In October 2015, police became suspicious about a small aircraft that had begun to use Bagby airfield in North Yorkshire. When they moved to intercept the plane, the passenger ran away, leaving behind a suitcase containing seven kilos of cocaine. For two years, the search for Jason Waterman threw up no trace until, in June 2017, an appeal to find him was launched on Crimewatch Roadshow. That night, police at an airport checkpoint in Gibraltar were amazed when a very wet man gave himself up to them. The drug dealer, who had been on the run for almost two years, had swum to the British territory to give himself up.
In London, the Metropolitan Police鈥檚 extradition unit is looking for two fugitives. DS Dean Coyle and his team are searching for a man with a history of crime back in Brazil, while DS Pete Rance and his team are on the hunt for a man who has been identified as a criminal both at home in Italy and abroad.
