A city pharmacy was robbed of OxyContin Thursday evening

A city pharmacy was robbed of "OxyContin" Thursday evening

According to Larson's arrest papers, Community Pharmacy employees told police that Larson walked in and was looking at a rack of bandages. When a clerk asked him if he needed help, Larson allegedly asked if the pharmacy had any 80 mg OxyContin pills.

Erb allegedly agreed, and Larson picked her up in his car. Larson drove to a spot near Broad Avenue and 23rd Street.

A man entered the Rite Aid in the Shaw’s plaza on Central Avenue a little before 6:30 last night, headed to the pharmacy then demanded and received "Oxycontin", Lt. Bill Breault said.
Last night's theft was similar to one the morning of July 28 at the Care Pharmacy at 18 Central Ave., where a man also entered, demanded and received Oxycontin, but never showed a weapon.
The suspect in the Care Pharmacy robbery is described similarly: 5-foot-6 to 5-foot-10, between 30- and 50-years-old and thin to average build. Surveillance from the Care Pharmacy heist showed the man leaving in a light blue station wagon with a Maine registration.

The Care Pharmacy on Central Avenue was robbed on July 28.

Thursday's robbery occurred shortly before 6:30 p.m. when the suspect entered the store and approached the pharmacy at the store's rear. Breault said witnesses described the suspect as wearing a surgical mask over his face. The suspect was also reportedly wearing a baseball cap and jeans.
