A Rock Hill man is charged with trafficking marijuana after York County drug agents arrested him following a delivery of more than 10 pounds of marijuana in a FedEx package, according to police and jail records.

Arthur Franklin Hunt, 38, is charged with marijuana trafficking of more than 10 pounds, and drug distribution near a park, said Marvin Brown, commander of the York County drug unit. Hunt was charged Wednesday after the package was delivered on Eastwood Drive across the street from Spencer Park, Brown said.

Hunt is in the York County jail.

The drugs came from Arizona, police said.

The intercepted package is one of several that drug agents have intercepted in recent weeks where packages had been shipped to York County from California, Texas, and now Arizona through UPS, FedEx and the postal service.
