ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) -- Federal drug agents have accused a 25-year-old man of using UPS to send a happy birthday box containing seven pounds of marijuana.
Drug Enforcement Administration officers arrested McKindle Rondae Beler on Wednesday when he arrived at an Albuquerque UPS Store from which the package was sent. Authorities said they believe he was seeking a refund for the $87 paid to get the package to Illinois overnight, DEA spokeswoman Lou Kilgas said.
It wasn't delivered because DEA officers intercepted it after UPS employees alerted them to a man behaving oddly, she said.
Beler was charged with possession of marijuana with intent to distribute and conspiracy.
He is suspected of mailing at least four packages from the store over a 10-day period, Kilgas said.
Authorities suspect the names on the packages were not the real names of the recipients, she said.
