The mayor of Tampa, Florida, discovered 70 pounds of cocaine with an estimated street value of approximately $1.1 million floating in the Atlantic Ocean during a fishing trip alongside her family last month, according to her office.

Mayor Jane Castor was fishing with her family in July when her brother Kelly Castor spotted a black package simply “bobbing in the water,” she told the Tampa Bay Times.
