美国海岸警卫队周三表示,在试图拦截一艘贩毒船只时,他们查获了超过2000磅可卡因。

该机构在新闻稿中称,周五,海岸警卫队一架HC-144“海洋哨兵”飞机的机组人员在波多黎各卡穆伊以北约100海里处发现了一艘“高速船”。海岸警卫队表示,该船“载有多个包裹和燃料容器”。

海岸警卫队 cutter Joseph Napier号被调派去拦截这艘船,船上人员“开始进行规避操作”,随后将货物抛入海中并逃离。

Joseph Napier号的船员从水中打捞起29个包裹。海岸警卫队称,这些包裹后来的检测结果均为可卡因呈阳性。这些非法毒品被转移到波多黎各圣胡安的国土安全部特工手中,总重2083磅——价值约1330万美元。

Coast Guard recovers 1 ton of cocaine after boat crew tosses drugs into sea while fleeing

The U.S. Coast Guard seized over 2,000 pounds of cocaine while attempting to intercept a boat that was trafficking drugs, the agency said Wednesday.

The air crew of a Coast Guard HC-144 Ocean Sentry aircraft sighted a “go-fast” boat about 100 nautical miles north of Camuy, Puerto Rico, on Friday, the agency said in a news release. It was carrying “multiple bales and fuel containers,” the Coast Guard said.

The Coast Guard Cutter Joseph Napier was diverted to interdict the vessel, whose crew “began evasive maneuvers” before throwing their cargo overboard and fleeing, the Coast Guard said.

The crew of the Joseph Napier recovered 29 bales from the water. The packages later tested positive for cocaine, the Coast Guard said. The illicit drugs were transferred to Homeland Security agents in San Juan, Puerto Rico, and weighed a combined 2,083 pounds — worth about $13.3 million.

The abandoned boat was later found ashore near Arecibo, Puerto Rico, by U.S. Border Patrol agents. Photos show a small white boat on the beach.

No arrests have been made, the Coast Guard said.

The Trump administration has ramped up efforts to combat drug trafficking into the United States. The Department of Defense has carried out lethal strikes on alleged drug boats, killing over 100 people in dozens of operations.
