Cops: Bad Drug Deal Results in Armed Robbery

Police responded to an aggravated robbery in the 9500 block of Lavergne Avenue on Feb. 24 at 10:45 p.m. According to police, two individuals were meeting up with someone known to them to purchase marijuana. When they arrived at the dealer's residence, however, the offender held the duo up at gunpoint, stealing one of victim's wallet, which contained cash and several credit cards. 

The suspect was described as a black male, about 6-feet-tall, 170-pounds, 19 to 24-years-of-age, wearing jeans, a black hooded sweatshirt, black jacket and a scarf that covered his face, police said. 

The incident comes ten days after six individuals dressed in all black robbed and attacked a teen in the 4800 block of Elm Street. (See map on right.) No arrests have been made in either incidents. 

At this time, no further information is available.
