Suspected package of cocaine found

A brick of suspected cocaine was found on the water off Islamorada Thursday by a boater.

Deputy Vaughn O’Keefe responded to the 75000 block of the Overseas Highway at approximately 1:51 p.m. after the boater notified the Sheriff’s Office.

The contents of the brick were waterlogged and could not be field-tested.

The package was turned over to the U.S. Border Patrol.
