“Well since at the Brevard County Sheriff’s Office we always strive to do the right thing, our Narcotics Agents are trying to identify the rightful owner of the 25 kilos of cocaine,” the post continued.

The sheriff’s office said the drugs appear to have fallen from a boat, possibly while its owner was traveling along Brevard County’s coastline.

The sheriff’s office is asking anyone with information about the cocaine or its rightful owner to contact their Narcotics Division.

“So if the 25 kilos of coke belongs to you, all we need you to do is come down to our Criminal Investigative Services building on Gus Hipp Blvd in Rockledge and claim your property with absolutely no strings attached!!” the post said in part.
