About $650,000 in cocaine from a cruise was found on a container ship in Baltimore, in what authorities called a rare drug seizure at a mid-Atlantic port. The blue backpack with eight bricks of cocaine, totalling more than 20 pounds, was detected in a container of steel machine parts on the shipping vessel Ital Lunare, according to U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

The ship traveled from China to Panama, then stopped in Georgia and New Jersey, before mooring in Maryland, CBP spokesman Steve Sapp said.
