Pickens County authorities investigating pharmacy burglaries
Armed burglars are targeting pharmacies in metro Atlanta.
PICKENS COUNTY, Ga. - Pickens County authorities are searching for criminals who stole narcotics from two pharmacies early Monday morning.
Hannah Wise, public information officer for the Pickens County Sheriff s Office, said the three criminals used a crowbar to pry their way into the stores.
They started at Bell s Family Pharmacy at 4:16 a.m. and stole narcotics. They knew exactly where the narcotics were so they could get in quickly and get out.
The three then went seven miles south to Ball Ground Pharmacy, pried open the door with a crowbar, and stole more narcotics. Surveillance video shows them leaving in a white, older four-door car.
