SALINAS, Calif. (KION-TV)- Salinas Police said they are looking for a suspect who allegedly stole $2,000 in items from a cannabis store on December 27.

Police said the incident took place at the CannaCruz cannabis business located on 1100 block of Abbott Street.

Investigators said that the suspect allegedly went through the front door of business and stole cannabis products plus money from the store.

Johnson also said that there was a vehicle that took off from the store just shortly after the suspect left.
