MIAMI BEACH, FLA. (WSVN) - The United States Coast Guard offloaded a huge stash of drugs in Miami Beach.

Officials on Wednesday said more than 2,000 pounds of cocaine and 3,000 pounds of marijuana were seized. The drugs have a street value of over $20 million.

Video posted to social media shows one of the drug seizures.

A part of the drug bust came after a Coast Guard helicopter fired warning shots at a smuggling vessel off the coast of Venezuela. The rest of them were stopped in three other interdictions in the Caribbean Sea.
