    The crew of the Coast Guard Cutter Farallon scans the Caribbean Sea following an interagency at-sea interdiction April 30, 2014 by Coast Guard, Customs and Border Protection and the Puerto Rico Police south of Puerto Rico, where the interdicted drug smugglers jettisoned their drug shipment overboard. The Coast Guard Cutters Drummond and Farallon with the assistance of a Coast Guard Auxiliary aircraft recovered 45 bales of cocaine, totaling 1,125 kilograms and estimated to have a wholesale value of $37 million.

    A U.S. Coast Guard press conference is being held at a port facility, where an officer in uniform speaks at an orange podium bearing the Coast Guard seal. Behind the speaker, a large stack of wrapped bales — consistent with seized contraband — is displayed alongside official agency seals on the ground. Several officials in suits stand to the right of the podium.
