Bail Set In Nantucket Drug And Gun Arrest

Bail is set at 200-thousand-dollars cash for a Florida man arrested over the weekend on his yacht in Nantucket Harbor on drug and gun charges.

Police were called to the yacht owned by Scott Burke of Key Largo after it was reported that a woman on board was possibly overdosing on drugs.

Officers say they found over an ounce of cocaine and a lesser amount of ketamine, along with unlicensed firearms.

Burke was arraigned yesterday in Plymouth, and is facing charges that include drug trafficking and illegal gun possession.
