US Officials Recover $180 Million of Cocaine

Description:US officials have recovered $180 million worth of cocaine from a boat used by drug smugglers. The Coast Guard intercepted a submarine-like vessel off the coast of Honduras in the Caribbean and found almost 15,000 pounds of cocaine. Officials detained the vessel's crew on July 13 and recovered some of the drugs before the boat sank. They spent about three days recovering the rest of the drugs - the first underwater drug removal from a boat of that kind. (0:36)
