For the second time in a week, a package of marijuana was mailed to the South Texas College bookstore in Weslaco.

The bookstore received a UPS shipment of books shortly before 1:30 p.m. Thursday. The store manager was opening the incoming packages when she noticed something wrapped in Bubble Wrap and diapers. “I found a food saver bags just jam packed with marijuana,” she said. “I went ahead and I notified campus security. Campus security came over and notified Weslaco P.D. … I was just completely shocked, because nothing ever exciting happens here at this store.”

Police say the package contained twenty pounds of marijuana. It was mailed to an address in Florida that did not exist, and listed the bookstore as the return address.
