Bricks of cocaine worth $2.3 million washed ashore at two South Texas beaches

Bricks of cocaine worth $2.3 million found on South Padre Island
September 30, 2023 - San Antonio Express-News

Bricks of cocaine washed ashore at two popular South Texas beaches this week, according to Border Patrol officials.

On Wednesday, the U.S. Border Patrol Rio Grande Valley sector recovered 25 bricks of cocaine that washed ashore on Boca Chica beach on South Padre Island. Another brick was found days later on Padre Island National Seashore, according to a tweet by Chief Patrol Agent Gloria Chavez.

In total, nearly 75 pounds of cocaine were seized with an estimated street value of $2.3 million, Chavez said.

Border Patrol officials said the cocaine bundles were most likely part of a failed smuggling attempt.

This is not the first time drugs have washed up on the shores of Texas' beaches.

Last year, Galveston police found three bricks of cocaine in three different places along the beach, according to ABC 13.

In 2021, there were two more instances of cocaine washing ashore.

Deputies found more than 100 pounds of cocaine that had washed up on Matagorda Beach and Sargent Beach within days of each other, according to another report from ABC 13.

In the second incident, two women who were searching for seashells found a brick of cocaine that had washed up on a beach near Beaumont, KABB reported.

A Drug Enforcement Administration official told KABB in 2021 that the cartels were behind the cocaine washing up on Texas shores. The DEA official went on to warn beachgoers not to touch the brick-shaped objects as they can be dangerous.
