Vallejo rapper charged with gold jewelry robbery in Oakland
"The alleged victim identified Juski through his Instagram and later picked him out of a photo lineup, authorities said. Police say that on Aug. 14 Galbraith arranged to buy jewelry from the man, but then robbed him of a Rolex watch and a gold necklace when they met up on East 25th Street in Oakland. He allegedly pulled a black handgun on the victim and said, "don't try anything stupid," then fled with a getaway driver afterwards."
"On Sept. 3, police raided Galbraith's home on Cadloni Lane in Vallejo, and located him in a vehicle outside the residence. In the car was "a large amount of cash in different denominations along with a white pill bottle containing suspected Oxycodone," police said in court filings. Galbraith has a prior conviction of accessory after the fact stemming from a 2016 robbery case in Solano County."
Juwon Galbraith, 28, known as rapper YWN Juski, was charged with second-degree robbery and being a felon in possession of a firearm and was released pending the case under a judge's order to stay away from the alleged victim. Police say he arranged to buy jewelry on Aug. 14, then robbed the man of a Rolex and necklace on East 25th Street in Oakland after pulling a black handgun and saying, "don't try anything stupid," before fleeing with a getaway driver. A Sept. 3 Vallejo raid found him in a vehicle with large cash and suspected Oxycodone. He has a 2016 accessory-after-the-fact conviction and was picked up in 2023 on suspicion of conspiracy to sell cocaine.
