A 24-year-old Garberville woman was the victim of a carjacking just minutes after she left a medical cannabis club in an unincorporated community near San Leandro on Monday afternoon, authorities said Tuesday.
The woman, whose name was withheld by authorities, was four blocks away from The Health Center when a Chevy Tahoe with no license plates pulled up in front of her Volvo, blocking its path, about 4 p.m., said Lt. Dale Amaral, spokes-

man for the Alameda County Sheriff's Department.

A man wearing a ski mask and carrying a revolver yanked the woman out of her car, jumped in and sped off, Amaral said.

The carjacking was witnessed by several people, some of whom called to report it to the sheriff's department, Amaral said. The woman was found walking back to the cannabis club by investigating deputies. Amaral said she was reluctant to file a complaint.

The Volvo was found about two blocks away from the club.

"This woman is lucky to be alive. We were looking for her," Amaral said. "We had police in the area trying to find her, but she walked all the way back to the club." Although the woman did not report any losses, Amaral said, investigators are trying to determine if any marijuana or cash was taken during the carjacking.

The carjacking on Monday is the latest incident that authorities have linked to area cannabis clubs in recent weeks.

Earlier this month, burglars broke into the Hayward Fellowship Hall and used a saw to cut a 16-by-32-inch hole in the wall to get inside of the Alameda County Resource Center, located at 16250 East 14th Street in unincorporated community near San Leandro.

The burglars nabbed 3 1/2 pounds of marijuana, along with several thousand dollars

How can you link this carjacking to marijuana just because it was down the
street from a med. club. I know it could be true there are low lifes out there that would stake out the pot club just like they would stake a bar and rob a drunk coming out of a bar late at night.
