Cocaine washed ashore on Grand Cayman April 2015

The package has been transferred to Grand Cayman for destruction, a spokesperson for the RCIPS stated.

Police did not reveal the number of packages or the weight of the haul in this case, but in April a couple walking in East End stumbled across some $350,000 worth of the drug in a garbage bag that contained 23 compressed packages. Less than two weeks later, fishermen at 12 Mile Banks also came across a similar package in the ocean containing another 23 individual packages of cocaine.
