Police seize a tonne of cocaine at Italian port

Cocaine worth more than 200m euros has been found at a port in Italy.

The drugs were found hidden inside four tractors unloaded from a ship at the port of Gioia Tauro in southern Italy. Police sources said, at a tonne, the haul was the largest seizure in the country for 15 years.

The ship had travelled from Brazil and the cocaine was believed to be heading for European markets.
