San Diego got a rare shipment Monday: more than a billion dollars of cocaine.
The U.S. Coast Guard conducted the single biggest offload of cocaine in history, unloading 66,000 pounds that the Coast Guard said is worth more than a billion dollars.A series of seizures from nearly two dozen drug smugglers landed the huge load, The Los Angeles Times reports.
The Coast guard has seized $1.8 billion worth of cocaine off the Latin Coast of the Pacific Ocean this fiscal year– more than the last three years combined.
Comprehending that amount of cocaine is staggering, so here are some pictures to help out.
