Boulder Dispensary Robbed With Bear Mace

Dandelion Dispensary

A man walked into the Dandelion Dispensary, in Boulder, Colorado, Thursday night and immediately sprayed bear mace at the employees.

With the employees blinded and barely breathing, the man went on to rob the place.

One of the employees had to be treated at the hospital.

The amount of bear mace kept police from entering the dispensary, to investigate, for several hours.

Once it was clear enough to see, they still had to use gas masks to enter.

Employees described the man as "not thin" and wearing "all black".

Police believe he may have had an accomplice in the robbery, who was driving a Pontiac Grand Prix.

Bear mace is an extra strong form of pepper spray, designed to drive off bears, and can be deadly to humans.
