Station San Juan boat crews offloaded approximately 400 kilograms in seized cocaine and transferred custody of four suspected smugglers to federal agents Nov. 24, 2021, following the interdiction of a go-fast vessel near Dorado, Puerto Rico. The apprehended smugglers are Dominican Republic nationals, who are facing federal prosecution in Puerto Rico. The interdiction is the result of multi-agency efforts involving the Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Force (OCDETF), the Caribbean Border Interagency Group and the Caribbean Corridor Strike Force (CCSF).
