BREVARD COUNTY • MELBOURNE BEACH, FLORIDA (WFTV) – Deputies are trying to figure out where 50 pounds of cocaine that washed ashore Friday on Melbourne Beach came from, the Brevard County Sheriff’s Office said.
A woman walking the beach who spotted the package alerted deputies Friday morning.
“Everything is washing ashore; I don’t know what it is,” said Bob Downs, who was also walking the beach.
Investigators said the nearly 23 kilograms, about 50 pounds, washed ashore just south of Melbourne Beach near where Hurricane Irma washed a sailboat ashore.
