Suspect sought in pharmacy robberies

London police are looking for a man they believe was responsible for three pharmacy robberies in the city.

The first happened on Sunday, May 26. Police say a man went into a pharmacy at 1118 Adelaide St. N around 11:20 a.m. and demanded narcotics. He told staff that he had a weapon, but no weapon was seen.

On August 6 around 12 p.m., a robbery was reported at a pharmacy at 530 Commissioners R. W. Again, a man told staff he had a weapon and demanded narcotics.

A similar robbery happened the next day around 12:45 p.m. at a pharmacy at 395 Southdale Rd. E.

In each case, the suspect is described as a white male, between 30 and 40 years of age, 5'10" to 6'0 tall, a heavy build, and a full beard. In each robbery, the man was wearing a baseball cap.

Police released surveillance photos of the suspect (seen below) and are hoping the public can help identify him.
