McIntosh, Ala. (AP) - Authorities say they intercepted a package of marijuana being shipped to an address in Washington County, and a man who thought he was receiving the shipment is being held on $1 million bail.
Washington County Sheriff Richard Stringer says authorities were tipped off last week when a package arrived in Ohio with what was believed to be more than 2 pounds of marijuana.
Stringer says 27-year-old Terry Jerome Johnson Jr. had the package delivered to a phony name at his parents' home.
The sheriff says FedEx delivered the package to authorities and a decoy truck and an officer dressed as a delivery driver brought the package to McIntosh on July 30.
Stringer says after Johnson claimed the package, he was arrested and charged with drug trafficking.
