Florida boater finds $1M worth of cocaine
A boater found a massive package of cocaine floating in the water off the Florida Keys on Saturday, officials said, according to The New York Post reported. The massive package, weighing 69 pounds, was estimated to have a $1 million street value. The package was recovered off Islamorada in the Upper Keys, the official said.
Thomas Martin, chief patrol agent with the Border Patrol’s Miami Sector, tweeted a picture of the recovered haul on his Twitter account Monday, saying his agency worked with support from the Coast Guard to recover the drugs. The photo showed what appeared to be 25 separate bricks wrapped in plastic.
