Oh, the stupidity of those in my hometown area...

Knowing the area like I do, and this area being the worst side of town, I'm thinking it was an inside job.

Just yesterday, another Walgreens in a suburb of Dayton was robbed twice in one day...by the same person.

We need a facepalm smilie...

Police: Drug bandit 'phoned in' a robbery | www.wpxi.com

DAYTON, Ohio —
Police in Dayton said they are looking for a man who called in a robbery early Tuesday morning at a local pharmacy.
The robbery happened around 12:00 a.m. Tuesday at the Walgreen’s store at the intersection of Salem Avenue and Philadelphia Drive.
Officers said the robber called the pharmacy line and said there was a bomb in aisle 5 that would go off if he didn't receive all the ocycodone they had. The robber ordered the pharmacist to leave the pills in the drive-up window drawer.
They said the man walked up to the window, took the prescription, and left the scene. He got away with more than 500 pills, according to a police report. A K-9 was brought in, but it was unable to track the robber.
The pharmacist was shaken up by the incident, but was not injured.
The robbery remains under investigation.

Here in the little town that I live in, there was robbery at the local Rite-Aid. The robbers cut a 2x2 foot hole in the roof of the building that just happened to be right above the locked cabinet that contained the pills. The store is located outside of town and the whole plaza is empty by 9 pm. The local Barney Fifes think it was an inside job but can't prove it.

You have to wonder about the intelligence of some crooks. A bank was robbed in a very small town locally here last week. The chances of avoiding aprehension almost zero to absolute zero.

I thoght bank robbing with todays communication systems and helicopters in a smaller area would have been a thing of the past. Technically in a larger area you could get lost in the crowds at least.

They should make Ex-Lax in a form that resembles Oxycodone, and dispense it to pharmacies for such cases.

that would be a nice court session - the burglar would sue the pharmacy for providing the wrong drug.
