An employee of a Los Angeles cannabis club was robbed of a backpack containing some cash and a jar of marijuana Wednesday night as he returned to his home in Thousand Oaks, according to Ventura County authorities.
The robbery was reported about 8:45 p.m. in the area of Sunset Drive and Los Robles Road in Thousand Oaks, the Ventura County Star reports.
The cannabis club employee was walking to his home from his car after returning from work when an unknown man approached him, hit him in the shoulder with a baseball bat, took his backpack and ran off, said Capt. Mike De Los Santos of the Ventura County Sheriff’s Department.
The robbery victim, who is in his 20s, did not require medical attention, De Los Santos said.
The assailant was described as a man about 19 or 20 years old wearing a hooded sweatshirt, said the captain.
The robbery remained under investigation today, De Los Santos said. It was unclear if the crime was random or targeted.
