The 24 year old Michigan resident said that he went to their room and smoked weed and then all five of them walked to the gas station together to purchase beer. The subjects then asked the man if he would like to buy some Percocet. The victim said that he told the new friends that he would, but needed to get money for the prescription pain killer first.

Two of the men in the hotel room evidently followed the 24 year old back to his hotel to get the money. Once at the victims room, the two men put a gun to his head while demanding all of his cash and his cellphone. The duo also stole the victims handgun that was in his room. The victim told officers that the men fled the scene in a newer model SUV that was black in color.

So far, the subjects have not been caught.
