Five-mile stretch of oil slime washes up on Florida beach

Oil has washed ashore and coated a Florida beach in the wake of Hurricane Sally, according to reports from local officials.

The oil was discovered on Saturday along a five-mile stretch of Johnson Beach in Perdido Key on the Gulf Coast close to the Alabama state line.

A county official said that it was possible the oil was whipped up by the hurricane from the catastrophic Deepwater Horizon Spill a decade ago, which continues to have impacts in the Gulf.
