ROME, Italy: Over 400 million euros worth of cocaine has been found floating off Sicily in packages likely left by a cargo ship for traffickers to bring ashore, Italian police said Monday.

In 'one of the largest' drug hauls ever made in Italy, police intercepted 70 packages, which were tied together and contained about 2 tons (2,000 kilograms) of cocaine, off Sicily's eastern coast.
