Royal Navy blows up drug-smuggler boat

A Coast Guard law enforcement boarding team from Miami, aboard the Royal Navy Frigate HMS Iron Duke, seized an estimated $55 million worth of cocaine from a go-fast vessel off the coast of Venezuela. The British navy crew then fired at the empty vessel until it exploded and sank.
