A Florida woman, 26, tried to get out of being found with cocaine in her purse by telling police she had no idea where it came from and that it must have blown in through the window.

Kennecia Posey was in the passenger seat of a car which police in Fort Pierce, Florida, stopped on March 21.

They said there was a strong smell of marijuana coming from the vehicle.

When they searched her bag, cops found a bag of marijuana and a small bag of cocaine.

Posey readily admitted to owning the first drug but said the second was not hers.

'I don't know anything about any cocaine. It's a windy day.

'It must have flown through the window and into my purse,' she said.

Police did not accept her unlikely version of events and took her into custody on one felony count of cocaine possession and a misdemeanor count of marijuana possession.

She was released on bond.
