This isn’t the first time a pedestrian has come across drugs. From The New York Post:
Bricks of cocaine and other drugs frequently wash up on southern Florida beaches and surrounding waters as smugglers traffic the illegal substances from South America to the US.In June, a beachgoer scouring a north Florida beach for sea turtle nests instead stumbled upon $4 million worth of cocaine bricks.The discovery stunned law enforcement who said it’s rare for the drugs to make it to Nassau County, which is much farther north than where they usually wash up.
