The St. Johns County Sheriff's Office says they collected a total of 25 kilograms of packaged cocaine on Friday that had washed up on beaches from Ponte Vedra south to Crescent Beach. Deputies showed off the cocaine Monday, saying the street value of the drugs would equal $7.5 million.  Drug agents say the cocaine was intended for somewhere along the coast of Florida, but it ended up in the ocean.

"There is a drug dealer of some level who is very unhappy," said SJCSO Cmdr. Chuck Mulligan. "He's lost really a great deal of value in the cocaine." The Sheriff's Office confirmed the bags contained cocaine. St. Johns County beaches, which were closed anyway Friday due to nor'easter conditions, were kept closed as deputies collected the bundles and placed them into evidence.

A Westside woman robbed in a Westside parking early Sunday morning says she thought she was going to die. The woman says the men slit her throat and took her wallet, but she fought back using pepper spray. Fortunately, the two robbers were only armed with a butter knife, so her injuries were not severe.

"I thought they were going to cut my head off," said the woman whose name is not being used because the robbers are still on the loose. She said she was headed through a strip-mall parking lot toward the Krystal's drive-through on 103rd Street when two men blocked her car. One of them ran over to open her door.

"I'm trying to pull the door back. He jerked it really hard and I went out the door and fell right there at his leg," she told Channel 4's Jim Piggott. "I looked up at him to get a picture of his face and I had my pepper spray on me, and as I looked up, that is when I had my throat slit from ear to ear. And I was scared as anything, but I was able to pepper spray him." One of them grabbed her wallet, but they ran off.
