BOSTON (WHDH) - A Coast Guard vessel is making its way back to Boston after a series of drug busts.

Officials say crews stopped five drug-smuggling ships coming from South America after being deployed there for more than two months.

The crew seized around 4.6 tons of cocaine, which was worth more than $150 Million.

The busts landed 15 suspected drug traffickers in custody.
