"Smuggler caught trying to sneak $10,000 in cocaine into plane under his wig."

Ok, I'll be the Grammar Nazi. How about rewriting it this way:

"Smuggler caught with $10,000 in cocaine under his wig as he tries to board plane."

I was wondering how he also fit the plane under his wig with the cocaine in there as well.

How did he get the plane under his wig?
Why did he try to put the $10,000 in the cocaine?

“I wonder what caused him to suspect it.’
