What is a veruca?

0 ⤊

While watching episode 2 of Life on Mars, at the beginning of the episode they chase a suspect out of a pool and tackle him. One of the inpectors pulls off the suspects shoe and says "Stand back, he's got a veruca!" (or something along those lines.) and the other 2 inspectors jump back.
So what's a veruca?

A veruca is a type of wart that is very contagious (easily spreads).

"Jimmy J" is right. Did you know that in Spanish the word is "veruga?"
