uuuuumm... cocaine bear???

Inspired by true events (so they say)

Cocaine falling from the sky? srsly?

Au contraire, mon frere.

Years ago, Napa hills, at the ranch, five miles from the airport, just before dark..

A low (very low) flying plane glides over the hill about 10 acres from the barn. Something drops from the plane. OMG! That plane must be in distress, something fell off of it!

Later, popped in to see my friend who was living at the airport with her son, the head of airport security. Chatting.. asked if a plane came in earlier with issues, told her what we saw. She was shocked, jumped up, called her son.

She told me they had been trying to bust a cocaine trafficker for months. He would fly out of Florida with the coke on the plane, but when he reached Napa, no cocaine to be found.

End of story.. perp was subsequently busted, extradited, convicted, and jailed.

Life is strange. Now, about that cocaine bear? Looks like a wild tale.
