From trash to cocaine bricks, the shores of the Florida Keys can bring some interesting discoveries for residents and visitors.
On Aug. 4, one person walking along a Key Largo beach found a black bag containing stacks of Cuban currency, among other items. The person who found the bag wasn’t named.
The Monroe County Sheriff’s Office said the black bag contained $51,500 in Cuban cash, as well as a loaded Glock handgun, passports and a cellphone. The discovery was made just after 2:30 p.m. on Monday at Seafarer Resort and Beach, located near MM 97, bayside, in Key Largo.
The sheriff’s office turned the items over to the U.S. Border Patrol.
