FedEx pot delivery puts Bentonville man in jail



BENTONVILLE - A Bentonville man is behind bars for having marijuana shipped to him via Fed-Ex. Michael Lee Prather, 35, was arrested Tuesday after Bentonville police say he accepted a package containing 4 1/2 pounds of marijuana delivered by undercover officers. Police say there were tipped off by Federal Express representatives.
Prather is being held in the Benton County Jail on drug charges.

Minnesota Man Received Huge UPS Shipments of California Marijuana

A Hummer-driving Minnesota man claiming he was a student in need of extra cash was busted for allegedly receiving 213 pounds of marijuana shipped by UPS from California, according to a report from MyFOXTwinCities.com.

The Ramsey County, Minn., Attorney's Office charged Doanzell Gieddarr Johnson, 27, of Inver Grove Heights on Thursday with first-degree sale or possession of marijuana, MyFOXTwinCities.com reports.

Los Angeles police already had arrested three people on charges of shipping the marijuana, and Twin Cities authorities were alerted that the parcels were sent to their jurisdiction.

Police arrested Johnson and seized more than $5,000 in cash, as well as Johnson's Hummer, which police said was used to pick up the parcels, according to the report.
