Inside 30 Suitcases on Plane: 1.3 Tons of Cocaine

There's a joke about "high flying" in here somewhere: Cops at Paris Charles de Gaulle airport have found 1.3 tons of pure cocaine on an Air France jet. The coke was packed inside 30 suitcases on a flight from Venezuela, and had a street value of about $270 million, the BBC reports. The bust was made earlier in September, but was only announced by France's Interior Minister yesterday. He said it was the biggest drug haul in Paris' history, and six people had been arrested in relation to the find. (More cocaine stories.)
