Drug dealers never cease to amaze the law officials when it comes to new and original ways to transport their supply , but this is one of the most unique tales to date.

The airport border guards in Cincinnati Ohio found a tombstone that was being shipped across the world held more than sentimental words for the dearly departed  when it came through Cincinnati.

A red flag was raised when they discovered a grave marker was being shipped  thousands of miles by air and at a closer look and with the help of a drug sniffing dog it was soon discovered the hollow tombstone was packed with around 50 pounds of marijuana.

What lengths will drug dealers go to trying to come up with new and original ways to try and outwit the DEA.? The DEA revealed that they have seen some pretty strange ways for these dealers to sends their illicit drugs to their designated  destinations but they have never seen until now the use of a tombstone as a transport..

Custom spokesperson Brian Bell stated that the officers became suspicious when the tombstone came through and had a discussion on why someone would send a grave marker  from Jamaica to England when it would be more economic to purchase one there. That  alone was cause to investigate and one of the drug sniffing dogs set off the next alarm.

After further investigation it was soon discovered that the concrete tombstone was only a shell and packed full of about 50 pounds of pot.

Ironically enough the investigation has reached a 'dead end' due to the fact that the sender and receiver both used false names and addresses.
