Things aren't looking good for three Akron, Ohio men accused of stealing over a dozen pairs of Nike LeBron sneakers from a student's apartment.

Cleveland.comreports that in March, three men allegedly forced their way into a University of Akron student's apartment and held him at gunpoint while stealing whatever valuables they could find. That included 14 pairs of LeBron James sneakers were valued at $3,000 as well as miscellaneous clothing and electronics. Apparently, the trio had come with plans to steal the tenant's weed stash, but were unable to find it.

Two of the men involved in the robbery have pled not guilty, while a third is not yet in police custody. Police believe a fourth man may have accompanied the group.
