Hurricane Debby left behind not only a trail of deadly destruction in the Southeast last week but also more than 100 pounds of narcotics, discovered along Florida’s shores, authorities said.
On August 4, 25 packages of cocaine were found on a beach in Islamorada, a village in the Florida Keys about 80 miles from Key West, according to a social media post from the US Customs and Border Patrol in Miami.
A good Samaritan alerted authorities after coming across the packages, which weighed about 70 pounds and contained cocaine with an estimated street value of more than $1 million, the agency said.
Samuel Briggs, the acting chief patrol agent of the US Border Patrol’s Miami sector, shared a photo on X, showing the large quantity of seized drugs.
There’s the plot hook that will finally link the Cocaine Bear and Sharknado universes!

The shit I could get done with that much cocaine…
What‘s the deal with the Cupra logo on the packages?
Are they sold in that area? Caribbean?

Some smugglers in a small boat had a really bad day.
Law enforcement doesn’t want you to know this, but I swear it’s 100% true:
