Investigators received a tip from someone who spotted a panga boat, which are often used by smugglers from Mexico.

The boat landed at Pirate’s Cove sometime between Friday night and early Saturday morning and deputies arrested three men. They said another man was able to escape.

Authorities closed Point Dume State Preserve Saturday morning as they searched for that fourth suspect.

The boat was reportedly loaded with 40-50 bales of marijuana, police reported.

Your reporting skills suck. There was NO tip off and Border Patrol responded to this.

Thanks for the swell graphic of the “panga” boat so everyone can see what one looks like, or not.
