Default PA: Philly boutique gets two buckets of pot

Philly boutique gets two buckets of pot
02.26.07|boston com

Workers at a downtown boutique called police after unexpectedly receiving two buckets of marijuana worth $90,000. Police were called to Fusion on Saturday after employees received the two packages of marijuana totaling about 20 pounds.

"Officers received a call that the manager of the store had received a package from FedEx and when he opened it there was a five-gallon bucket inside," said Capt. Chris Werner. Inside that bucket was 10 pounds of marijuana. The second package arrived about an hour later, this one from a different delivery service but with similar contents.

Both packages were from California and addressed to the store, but there were no names on the address labels.

"It was obviously intended for someone in the Philadelphia area," Werner said. "We are trying to find out who."

Lol. I am just imagining this guy running around trying to find who ordered ten pounds of marijuana. This article made my day.

If they sent me 10 pounds I would have to go on vacation and change my name from 1toke to your user name.

My guess is that the employee (or owner) who was supposed to divert those two packages somehow missed his cue. It's a great idea, having the weed delivered to a neutral agency, but if the timing is off it all falls apart.

If I unexpectedly received 20 pounds of marijuana in the mail I would assume that someone was trying to set me up. After sterilizing my house I'd call the police, be a hero, and never have to worry about their suspicions again.

If this happened to me, I'd keep ten pounds, and give the cops the rest. Free weed and hero status. Beat that, Buzzby

OK. The postal inspectors were aware of all 20 pounds...
