LITTLE ROCK, AR – Police report a Little Rock Walgreens was robbed Saturday morning.

According to reports, around 4:50 am on April 7, a man entered the Walgreens located at 111 North Bowman Road in Little Rock and started looking at greeting cards. The man, described as about 6’1”-6’3”, weighing between 150-170 pounds and wearing a brown hoodie, black skull cap, blue jeans and white tennis shoes, approached the pharmacy counter and demanded all of the Oxycodone, Oxycontin and Hydrocodone.

Police say the suspect told the pharmacist he had a gun, but never pulled it out, instead placing all of the medicine into a white trash bag and fleeing the scene on foot.

Anyone with information on this suspect is asked to call Robbery Detective at (501) 371-4660.

Pharmacies should have dummy packs of pills filled with vitamins if a robbery ever occurs.

joyful1, you're wrong. If he's black or mexican, they won't say so.

an obvious pill pusher. I'm sure he has a record already and all the cops need to do is run a scan off into their database..oh wait, I watch too much NCIS.

@1gmama: In the picture he SORT OF looks white, but it's hard to tell.

My wife is 54 and I am 57. Due to all the who do on the hoods we are throwing ours away. A person is likely to be shoot on sight and ask questions later. Who could you blame.
