‘Cocaine’ washes up on beach
Ten kilograms of white powder, believed to be cocaine, has washed up on a north Queensland beach.
Beachgoers at Ramsay Bay, Hinchinbrook Island, contacted police on Sunday after discovering 10 one kilogram packages on the shore at the high tide mark.
Police are awaiting results of forensic examination of the powder, but suspect it is cocaine.
Investigators are searching the area, and are urging the public to come forward with any information, citing fears the contents of the packages “could become a health risk” if mishandled.
