In a bizarre incident, Hurricane Debby brought more than just strong winds and heavy rainfall to Florida’s shores. The storm blew 25 packets of cocaine onto a beach in the Sunshine State, leaving authorities stunned.
According to reports, the cocaine packets were discovered on the beach by a passerby, who immediately notified the authorities. The packets were later confirmed to be cocaine, weighing a total of around 25 kilograms.
The unexpected delivery is believed to have been washed ashore from a ship or a boat that was caught in the storm. Authorities suspect that the cocaine was being smuggled into the country when the storm hit, causing the packets to be swept away and deposited on the beach.
The discovery has left authorities scrambling to investigate the source of the cocaine and how it ended up on the beach. The US Coast Guard and other agencies are working together to determine the origin of the packets and whether they are connected to any ongoing smuggling operations.
The incident serves as a reminder of the dangers of drug smuggling and the unpredictable nature of hurricanes. While Hurricane Debby has passed, the impact of the storm is still being felt in Florida, and this unexpected delivery has added a new layer of complexity to the situation.
