A Holliston man was arrested over the weekend after authorities learned marijuana had been shipped by mail to a Milford home, police said.

Timothy S. Francy, 23, of 147 Turner Road, was arrested Friday afternoon at 4 Dynasty Drive, where the package containing 18 pounds of marijuana was seized, according to Milford Police Lt. James Falvey.

Francy was charged with possession of a Class D substance with intent to distribute and a drug violation within 1,000 feet of a school.

Police from Milford, Hopkinton, Franklin, along with state police and U.S. Postal Inspectors, executed a search warrant at the home about 3 p.m. Friday after receiving a tip from Arizona law enforcement officials, Falvey said.

The marijuana was shipped along with other substances to try to cover its odor, police said.

A Milford street listing shows four people sharing Francy's last name live at 4 Dynasty Drive, but their relationship was unclear yesterday.

Francy was released on bail Friday and is expected to be arraigned in Milford District Court today, police said.
