Marijuana bale found in shipment to food bank
Advertisements [?]
AUBURN, Maine — Drug agents are investigating how a 20-pound bale of marijuana got mixed in with a truckload of watermelons that were delivered to the Good Shepherd Food-Bank.

A volunteer came across the marijuana while picking through the watermelons Thursday afternoon. The man said the marijuana, which was neatly wrapped with packing tape, was loaded near the front end of a tractor-trailer that was delivering the watermelons to the food bank´s warehouse.

After the bale was discovered, the Maine Drug Enforcement Agency was called. An agent quizzed the man who found the bale but quickly determined he had nothing to do with the illegal shipment.

"It was definitely bizarre," the volunteer, who didn´t want to be identified, told the Sun Journal of Lewiston.

Bizarre is a good word for it, yeah. :)
