Student Robbed of Marijuana in Franklin High Bathroom

Four students were suspended and three charged with robbery and assault after five bags of marijuana were stolen during a robbery at Franklin High School, police said.

“The victim admitted to having it,” said Lt. Stephen Doarnberger, assistant commander of the Baltimore County Police’s Franklin precinct.

On Thursday, May 9, between 9:30 and 10 a.m., one student carried the victim to the bathroom, where another helped him commit the robbery and a third stood outside to be a lookout, Doarnberger said.

“There was an uninvolved student who reported it to the administation, and then we got involved,” he said.

The marijuana was not recovered, so the victim was not charged, Doarnberger said.

The three other students—two of whom are 16 years old and one of whom is 17—were charged with robbery and second-degree assault.
