Friday, Apr. 02, 2010 Thieves steal drugs through hole in pharmacy The Associated Press
SPARTANBURG, S.C. -- Authorities say thieves cut a hole in the wall of a South Carolina pharmacy and took more than 4,700 doses of a painkiller without ever entering the building.
Spartanburg County deputies said officers discovered the theft after responding to an alarm at 2:15 a.m. Friday at a Fred's Pharmacy in Roebuck.
Investigators say after cutting the hole through the wall, the thieves used a pole to knock down the bottles of the painkiller Lortab, then had some kind of grabbing tool to pick them up. Quantcast
A pharmacist at the store told deputies part of the wall was reinforced last month, but the hole was cut beneath where the work took place.
Deputies say 4,744 pills worth $2,144 were taken.
Nice inside job eh?

Maybe they got a script for something with Hydrocodone in it filled one day, and just watched to see where the pharmacist pulled the bottle from?
4700 pills worth 2100 bucks, that's got to be the legally-prescribed price. In my city, street price on 4700 Lortabs, assuming they're the kind with only 5mg of hydrocodone in them, would be worth $25,000 retail, or probably $10,000 wholesale. Hydrocodone is $1 a mg around here Oxy is closer to $2/mg.

From my experience at pharmacys it takes the pharmacist time to fill it. Usually the pills are counted then bottled in a separate bottle. Guy must have waited and watched the pharmacist
