Police officers exchanged gunfire with Colombians Jorge Mayorga Flores and Luis Felipe Hurtado, who were traveling in a "go-fast" speedboat loaded down with drugs. They had an AK-47 on board, as well as a full set of sophisticated communication equipment including two satellite telephones. The boat they were in had four 200 horsepower motors.
