According to a press release from the police department, a white male suspect, wearing a black sock hat and a black coat, entered the business and proceeded to the pharmacy. There, he demanded narcotics from the pharmacy technician. During that time, he placed his hand in his coat pocket and victims feared he was armed.

While in possession of narcotics, the suspect fled on foot west of the business. Officers arrived on scene and quickly began a search of the area with a K9 unit. Evidence was found discarded in the area of Market Street and McKinley Street. It is believed the suspect may have fled in a vehicle at that location.

Anyone with information on the suspect or the robbery is asked to contact (574) 372-9511. Ask for the detective division.
