Six men who robbed a medical marijuana clinic in Granada Hills, taking $10,000 and 11 pounds of marijuana, were at large on Friday, police said.
The robbery occurred at 10369 Balboa Blvd. around 8:30 last night, said Sgt. Jace Kessler of the Los Angeles Police Department's Devonshire Station.
During the heist, one shot was fired, ricocheting off the floor and breaking a window, but no one was injured, Kessler said.
People at the clinic told police 11 pounds of pot was taken, and police estimated the street value of the drug at $60,000, said Los Angeles police Lt. Tom Murrell of the LAPD's Devonshire Station.
The six robbers fled in a four-door SUV, possibly a Mercedes, police said.
During the investigation, police seized a sawed off, double-barrel, 12- gauge shotgun, he said.
Anyone with information on the robbers was urged to call detectives at the LAPD's Devonshire Station at (818) 832-0609.
