Hurricane Debby washed 70 pounds of cocaine ashore on Florida Beach over the weekend.
According to Chief Patrol Agent Samuel Briggs II, the 7 0pounds of cocaine were split among 25 packages and washed ashore in the Florida Keys; the exact location was not disclosed.
The drugs were discovered by what the chief is calling a Good Samaritan after they contacted authorities to report the find.
The street value of the cocaine is estimated at more than $1 million.
Debby was a depression at the time it passed west of the Florida Keys. It later became a tropical storm west of Southwest Florida, followed by strengthening to Category 1 before landfall in the Big Bend region of Florida.
