A  marijuana deal soured for the potential buyer late last night when he was robbed by up to five suspects. 

According to Elk Grove Police, the 19-year old male victim and another individual agreed to meet on the 9000 block of Bruceville Road to buy marijuana. During the sale, they were approached by three to five suspects. 

The victim ran away from the suspects and was tackled to the ground. Three of the suspects kicked him, demanded his personal property, while one suspect pointed a gun and two others were holding knives. 

The victim complied with the suspects' demands who then fled northbound. The suspect with the gun was described as a Black male adult, riding a red mountain bike and was wearing a red t-shirt with blue shorts. One of the knife-wielding suspects was described as a Black male adult, riding a mountain bike and wearing dark clothing. 

Responding officers were unable to locate the suspects.

Elk Grove is becoming a low end hood.

The criminals are so cheap that they don't even use a car.

How far could those guys have gone on a cheap mountain bike?
