Suspected Melbourne dealer faces charges

MELBOURNE — A suspected marijuana dealer is facing robbery charges after police said he held up a client who ended up calling 9-1-1 to report the heist.
Michael Parda, 20, of Melbourne was charged with robbery with a firearm, possession of more than 20 grams of cannabis, after the victim called to police to report he was robbed of $550 during a deal for two ounces of marijuana, reports show.
Parda will have a July 23 hearing on the charges, according to records.
Melbourne police said the victim wanted to buy marijuana from an unknown dealer and was directed to meet with Parda last Saturday on the 4000 block of Dow Road.
Parda, armed with a .380 caliber handgun, met the victim, pulled out the weapon and demanded cash during the meeting, officials said.
Parda took the money then fled the scene in his car. The victim called 9-1-1 to report the robbery, police said.
Minutes later, police pulled over Parda, who then told officers, “I didn’t want to rob a good person. I didn’t think a guy buying drugs would call the cops,” reports show.
Officers also found 37 grams of marijuana Parda’s vehicle along with the stolen cash, reports show.
Parda was taken to Brevard County Detention Center.
