A medical marijuana dispensary was raided Wednesday by officials from the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency.

The raid took place at the River City Patient Center marijuana dispensary on El Camino Avenue near the Capital City freeway. The business had been opened for about three years.

The DEA said it also searched a nearby storage facility, as well as a home in Acampo belonging to the dispensary's owner, and an apparent growing location in Wilseyville.

Kim Stabnau, a dispensary worker, said a lot of the younger patients frequent the dispensary for anxiety and mental issues.

Bill Pierce, the dispensary owner, said he's not sure if or when he will reopen the business.

Nobody has been charged as of yet in connection with the raid.
