James said her immediate reaction was, "What?!"

The shoebox was shipped from a Finish Line store in Omaha. James contacted the company and has yet to hear back from management. She also called the Kansas City Police Department.

Officers came to James' home and tested the leaf. The tests showed it was indeed marijuana. The marijuana, the box and the shipping bag were taken by police into evidence. James kept the shoes.
