CHINA GROVE, N.C. -- A young China Grove girl unwrapped a Bratz doll on Christmas morning and found a surprise Santa certainly didn’t plant.
Inside the box, under the doll’s head, were three pounds of marijuana. Rowan County detectives say the drugs landed at the wrong house.
According to investigators, the girl’s mother bought the doll from an auction on eBay. When it was delivered to her apartment, it looked just like it had come straight from the manufacturing plant, so she wrapped it and put it under the tree.
The mother called 911 on Christmas Day when she realized what was in the box. Capt. John Sifford of the Rowan County Sheriff’s Department said hiding the drugs in merchandise is just another way to move them. “Drugs are sent through the mail, various services,” he said. “Apparently this mail was meant for someone else.”
Authorities said the marijuana is worth more than $7,000 on the street.
