December 6, 2011

Spokane County Sheriff’s deputies are looking for a man in his mid-20s who robbed the Deer Park Medicine Shoppe at gunpoint on Monday and made off with an undisclosed amount of oxycontin.
The Spokane County Sheriff's Office said a clean-shaven, white male walked into the pharmacy at around 4:40 p.m. and gave an employee a note demanding oxycontin while displaying a silver-colored handgun in his waistband.
The employee handed the suspect some oxycontin and the man ran across Main Street to the back of the Salty Dog restaurant.
The suspect, about 5-foot-6 or 5-foot-7, was wearing a dark blue wool coat and a dark knit cap.
Anyone with any information on this robbery is asked to call Crime Check at 456-2233.
