2 Teens Arrested, 1 At Large In San Jose Pot Club Robbery

SAN JOSE (KCBS) – Two of three suspects, who targeted a San Jose pot club on Labor Day, were behind bars following a brazen daytime armed robbery.

Three armed juveniles stormed the medical marijuana dispensary on Zanker Road late Monday morning, robbing the business at gunpoint.

But the robbery set off alarms, which brought a police response. San Jose Police Officer Jose Garcia said the suspects tried to get away in their van.

KCBS' Matt Bigler Reports:

"An officer spotted the getaway vehicle, described as a white van, that was up on Interstate 880 and there was a short vehicle pursuit," said Garcia. "The pursuit went through the Berryessa area."

Garcia said officers managed to stop the van and arrest two suspects without incident but the third suspect managed to get away on foot.

All three teens were from the Sacramento area.
