Police detectives were still seeking to identify the suspect who accompanied Brown to the Woodbridge residence, in the 14600 block of Brook Drive, where the robbery occurred.

Brown and the other suspect went there to purchase marijuana, according to police. During the encounter, one suspect displayed a knife and cut the victim, a 19-year-old Woodbridge man, in the hand before taking pot and a handgun belonging to the victim.

The suspects fled the area before police arrived. The victim sustained a non-life-threatening injury and was taken to an area hospital for treatment.

Police obtained a search warrant and searched the victim’s home for narcotics, the report added.
