The U.S. Coast Guard made a massive drug bust this month, offloading 28,000 pounds of cocaine worth $211.3 million at Port Everglades on Thursday. The haul was the result of four major interdictions in the Eastern Pacific, led by the crew of the Coast Guard Cutter Thetis and an MH-65 Dolphin helicopter team.
A recruit at the Chicago Police Academy was arrested after crack cocaine was allegedly discovered in his pocket during a routine narcotics training exercise. The incident took place on Monday as part of a scenario meant to simulate a drug-related arrest.
