Thackerville, Oklahoma –
On Friday, July 22, the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation was requested by the Love County Sheriff’s Office to investigate after an attempted robbery at a Thackerville dispensary turned deadly.
The Border Buds, at 22995 U.S. Highway 77, was open when two men forcibly entered the dispensary and indicated they wanted money and marijuana. One of the men showed the clerk his gun and the clerk informed both men he was also armed.
