Robbery At South Point Pharmacy

Added September 15th, 2006

Yet another robbery has taken place at a pharmacy by a thief that was not looking for cash but for powerful prescription drugs that are becoming the center of concern because of the high levels of abuse connected with them. The robbery took place at McMeans Pharmacy in South Point earlier this week.

According to reports, the thief walked in wearing a mask and brandishing a gun. He pointed the gun at various people that were in the pharmacy and he demanded Oxycontin, which is a powerful prescription painkiller that is derived from opium and is becoming hugely popular amongst drug abusers.

Lawrence County Sheriff Tim Sexton said: “He obtained several pills and then ran to a nearby vehicle. We located the vehicle approximately 20 minutes later at the Lawrence Village apartments and it was a stolen Jeep out of Putnam County, W.Va. We are following up on a few things and we are processing the vehicle this morning.”

Police are now appealing for information. Sexton stated: “Sometimes even the smallest tip can lead to an arrest. A person may know someone whom they think is selling drugs and they have a large amount of prescription pills. Or they may know someone they suspect is using drugs and this person has an extraordinarily large amount of drugs. Some people are even known to brag about what they’ve done. Anything the public can do to assist us, we appreciate.”
