30-Pound Marijuana Brick Delivered to Wrong Address in Denton, Texas

Well, I guess that UPS really does deliver! Sometimes to the wrong address. A Denton man discovered Monday when he found a lot of green inside a package dropped on his porch by the men in brown. Police Department spokesman Officer Ryan Grelle said that the man took the package to Denton police later that night. It contained a 30-pound brick of compressed marijuana with a street value of $10,500. Wow, that was smart!

Grelle said that UPS mistakenly delivered it to the Denton house about 8 p.m. The resident was not at home at the time and opened it when he returned. “He was expecting tools that he had ordered from Sears,” Grelle said. “He opened it up and thought, ‘Oh my.’ He loaded it up and brought it to the police department.”

Grelle said the package, which apparently came from Pharr, Texas, and was handled by a UPS branch in McAllen on Jan. 6, wasn’t addressed to the Denton man on whose porch it landed. It carried an address in Dallas. But there was no such address in Dallas, so someone at the package delivery service decided it must be meant for a similar address in Denton, the officer said.

The case is still under investigation. I hope they will find who it was meant for and lock them up. Crazy. One has to wonder what else is UPS and FedEx transporting without knowledge. The craziest incidents pop up in the news on a daily basis.
