People in Brevard County are fearing the worst — that the tar balls came from the Gulf. “I’m just picking up the pieces and I can’t believe how big they’re coming in, and it’s all over the beach,” a beachgoer said on Tuesday. Coast Guard members collected samples of the tar balls. Officials said it will take a week for tests to determine if the tar balls are related to the ongoing oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.
