Jogger finds 55 pounds of cocaine on beach

Published August 3, 2011 GALVESTON — A beach jogger discovered a large burlap sack Monday morning, which police said contained 55 pounds of cocaine.

The man was jogging along Indian Beach, which is near De Vaca Lane on the island’s West End, about 9:30 a.m. when he found the package at the water’s edge, Galveston police Capt. Jeff Heyse said.

Heyse declined to reveal the name of the jogger who found the large burlap sack, saying police wanted to allow him to remain anonymous.

“He couldn’t open the package on the beach, due to the way it was tied,” Heyse said. “He brought it back to his residence, cut the bag open and observed the flat brick inside.”

The jogger, having seen similar packages on television and in movies, immediately suspected it contained narcotics and called the police, Heyse said.

“We recovered what appears to be approximately 25 kilos of cocaine,” Heyse said. “Each brick weighing 2.2 pounds.”

Because the package still was partially in the water, Heyse suspected someone possibly dropped it from a boat.

“This is not the first time cocaine ... has washed up on the beach like this,” Heyse said.

With the help of federal authorities, police are investigating the source, Heyse said.

“When cocaine comes like this, it didn’t come from the states,” Heyse said. “It came from south of the border. So, our jurisdiction is limited of what we can do with it.”

Federal authorities could analyze the product to try to determine its origin, Heyse said.

That would be the ultimate five o'clock free crack giveaway!

At wholesale that's 450k+.

I would have been the happiest person in the world.

i would have smashed my face into it tony montana style and cried in joy

**bdeljoose** · 08-03-2011, 01:22 PM

I would have gone to the local strip club and have the ladies snort lines off my boner all night.

Why can't I be lucky enough to just "find" stuff like that? Maybe one day I'll "find" an unopened package of gear in the lockers in the gym.

“This is not the first time cocaine ... has washed up on the beach like this,” Heyse said.

Maybe I need to put down the iron and pick up running on the beach. More chicks that way too

**Single** · 08-03-2011, 01:28 PM

Right now the drug cartels are reading this and thinking "we sent 30 kilos, what happend to the other 5?"

Thats what I would have done, no one is going to miss a couple of kilos.

**LightBearer** · 08-03-2011, 01:31 PM

at 17000 per kilo wholesale thats near 1 million on the street
if he broke it down and sold oz's it would be like 10x that much money
crazy shit

EDIT: os snap thats 55LBS i thought it was 55 kilos NM on my entire post

**OfficerFarva** · 08-03-2011, 01:32 PM

I hope I'd never make a find like that. I'd end up found in some remote isolated village in Guatemala doing rails of the pictures I made with my blow like Nicholas Cages on screen brother in Lord Of War.

I was gonna say your math is a little off. I went figured it at 18k/kilo so 450k. Still a SHIT TON of money. If you have that kinda weight, no need to get greedy and sell it by the O. Just more risk that way.

**S_walker** · 08-03-2011, 02:24 PM

**maniclion** · 08-03-2011, 02:31 PM

sometimes I like to keep my ajax in a vial....

also this is uncut coke which is worth ALOT more because then the drug king pins of the U.S mix other stuff in to make more product.

Yea, they call it crack.

Anyway, I wouldn't sell it wholesale, someone would find out duh.
You'd have no choice but to sit on it for years and sale little by little.

How you figure? People sell keys every day?

**LAM** · 08-03-2011, 04:19 PM

connections in either hollywood or wallstreet and you could get rid of that kind of weight for a decent prices in hours.

**ecot3c inside** · 08-03-2011, 04:38 PM

problem is, when you set up a buyer for it you will most likely get robbed.. because guys that buy kilos of coke at a time probably are not one to fuck around.

no they call it shitty coke, all the coke you get on the streets is mixed with something (not a drug) but just to give it more weight.

**SFW** · 08-03-2011, 04:50 PM

What a lame herb. He probably thought he'd get a medal or something.
