Gun fired during confrontation
A shot was fired Friday and four people arrested at gunpoint in Rio del Mar after a group tried to steal medical marijuana from a Live Oak home, sheriff’s Sgt. Mario Sulay said.
The confrontation and a shotgun blast by the male victim at the Live Oak house occurred about 3:50 p.m.
The would-be robbers fled in a black Jeep Cherokee.
The Cherokee led officers on a short chase on southbound Highway 1.
The fleeing vehicle collided with another car on the Rio del Mar offramp and stopped in Deer Park Shopping Center, sheriff’s Lt. Steve Hartness said.
A man, a woman and a teenage boy were ar-rested on suspicion of attempted grand theft and conspiracy.
The Live Oak victim cultivates medical marijuana in compliance with county regulations, Sulay said.
He had been the victim of a home-invasion robbery on Sept. 12 during which he was assaulted.
