The loot included 11.1 kilograms of cocaine and 1,853 illegal prescription pills.

Ratcliff said this bust marks the largest known cocaine seizure in the history of the Lafayette Police Department.

Washington has been charged with two counts of possession with intent to distribute Schedule II narcotics.

The Lafayette Police Department's Crime Suppression Unit and a K-9 unit conducted the independent drug interdiction operation.

Though Washington has been the only suspect arrested at this point, the investigation is ongoing.
