Strange: Man expects tools but gets marijuana


DENTON, TX -- A Denton man expecting a shipment of tools instead received a 30-pound brick of marijuana that police say is worth more than $10,000.
Police say the man noticed UPS had left an item on his porch.
Officer Ryan Grelle says the man, whose name was not immediately released, opened the box Monday night, realized it contained drugs and contacted police.
The package from the Pharr area was handled by UPS in McAllen on Jan. 6. and apparently was intended for a Dallas address.
The Denton Record-Chronicle reports no such address exists in Dallas, so the package wound up at the similar address in Denton.
