Burglary ring targets multiple pharmacies to steal thousands of prescription narcotics
PORT ORCHARD, Wash. -- Thousands of opioid pills are on the streets including Hydrocodone, Percocet, Morphine and Oxycodone after more than 14 pharmacy burglaries in western Washington this summer.
The latest of these burglaries was in South Kitsap County, where two suspects broke into a locally-owned pharmacy in the middle of the night. The owner says it's the first time in over 50 years that anything like this has happened.
"It's such a disheartening thing, that's for sure," South Park Pharmacy owner Ken Paskett said.
The surveillance video from the pharmacy shows two suspects using a pry bar to break the locks on the front door before racing inside.
