22 packages of cocaine washed ashore along a Fort Pierce beach Tuesday morning.
By early afternoon there were very few people along the shore and no indication of the excitement that transpired earlier.
Lora Howard lives right along the beach. Around noon, she spotted a police helicopter hovering overhead and then, “There was a knock on my door and there were a couple of police officers standing there and on my doorstep there were 22 (packages) of coke.” She said, “It was like.. whoa.”
Two beachgoers had spotted the drugs washing ashore and called 9-1-1. Minutes later, police asked Howard if they could borrow her hose to wash off the drugs and if she could give them a garbage bag to wrap it up.
