He was the victim of a home invasion, but he's the one who's in trouble with the law this morning.
That's because of the marijuana that the robbery suspects were after last night in the 3900 block of Fredericksburg Road.
Police say the victim and his girlfriend waited 30 to 40 minutes before calling police about their stolen pot.
According to police, the invaders knocked on the front door. When the victim opened it, they pulled a gun and started demanding the marijuana.
When the girlfriend returned, she found the victim tied up in the bedroom.
"When our officers first arrived here, they weren't cooperative in the beginning," said SAPD Sgt. Curtis Coolidge. " We didn't even get the basic description until about 15 or 20 minutes here at the scene to get the victim to cooperate with the investigation."
Police say they have a vague description of the robbers, who are described as three Hispanic males, 18 to 20 years old. The trio will face aggravated robbery charges.
As for the young couple, no one was injured, but police believe that possession of marijuana charges are very likely.
