Kingston.– United States law enforcement officials said they had arrested three people and seized more than 900 kilogrammes of cocaine during operations in the Caribbean Sea this week.

The Immigration and Customs Enforcement's (ICE) Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), together with the Caribbean Corridor Strike Force (CCSF), said they had arrested three Dominicans for drug trafficking, seized 918 kilograms of cocaine with an estimated street value of more than US$22 million.

“In less than one month, HSI and its partners in the Caribbean Corridor Strike Force have seized more than 2,000 kilograms of cocaine,” said Angel Melendez, acting special agent in charge of HIS.

“These seizures and related arrests are clear proof that HSI, along with our state and federal partners, are vigilant and will not tolerate the importation of illegal drugs into the United States through Puerto Rico,” he added.

So in conformity with the law of supply and demand, how much has street price jumped on this news? If a frost hits the Florida orange groves the world price of orange juce futures jumps, like right now. Say why not have 'snow' on the futures market so banks could bet on the trade. Oh, they are already doing more thanOK on the businessas it is.
