Boat with drugs spotted in Ft Pierce

Boat with drugs spotted in Ft Pierce.

Witnesses said a boat with drugs  was spotted in Fort Pierce. Police said a boat was found against the rocks on South Hutchinson Island Wednesday morning.

Seth Curphy works near where the boat was found. He said he saw the boat on the rocks and thought someone was in trouble. That’s when he saw two men running away, and as he got closer to the boat, he knew something was up. 

That’s when he said he flagged down the Coast Guard. The Coast Guard said it’s only involvement was towing the boat. The Department of Homeland Security would not comment since it’s an ongoing investigation. They would not immediately confirm if there were any drugs on the boat, if they were searching for anyone, or if they had made any arrests.
