Armed Robbers Hold Up Medical Marijuana Business

WEST LOS ANGELES (CBS) ― Authorities Friday were looking for four suspects who robbed a medical marijuana dispensary in West Los Angeles.

The crime took place before 11 p.m. Thursday in the 2000 block of Cotner Avenue, according to Richard French of the Los Angeles Police Department.

Three men armed with handguns robbed the business of $15,000, as well as marijuana, French said.

The suspects fled in a silver, late-model Cadillac that was driven by a fourth suspect, French said.

A similar crime reportedly occurred on Wednesday night in the Reseda area.
