Four tons of marijuana in large bales were found bobbing off the Southern California coast, and authorities are still trying to determine where it came from.
Harbor patrol agents began receiving tips about "suspicious bales" 13 miles offshore near Dana Point, in Orange County around noon on May 20, according to a report from CBS Los Angeles.
The Coast Guard, Orange County Sheriff's Department and U.S. Border Patrol hauled in some 160 bales or 7,623 pounds of marijuana. Border Patrol agents said the bales had a street value of $3.6 million.

I think some drug runner in Mexico is going to have a really bad day. The cartel isn’t very forgiving about dumping a load of “Product”.
