Somewhere out there is a very confused and disappointed drug dealer.

It just goes to show you what can happen when a link in the supply chain breaks down.

In this case, a Texas man who’d ordered a shipment of tools received a 30-pound brick of marijuana. Authorities estimated the value at more than $10,000.

As soon as he opened the box and realized it wasn’t what he’d expected, and called the cops.

How did this happen?

The package was shipped via UPS and was directed to a Dallas address.

When delivery people couldn’t find the address in the Dallas area, they forwarded it to a similar address, which was 40 miles away.

At least the delivery service doesn’t have to worry about dropping the ball.

It’s not very likely the intended recipient will step forward to claim the wayward package.
