Navy divers find another cocaine bale

Navy divers have found another bale of cocaine floating in the sea between Mizen Head and Three Castles Head.

The find is just part of the €110m worth of cocaine discovered floating off the south-west peninsula following the sinking of a dinghy yesterday morning.

Three young English men were on board the boat, one of whom managed to swim to shore and raise the alarm.

A second was rescued from the water a short time later, while the third is still missing.

One of those men is being questioned by gardaí and the other is still receiving treatment in hospital.
