A masked man entered the Greenpoint Pharmacy on Tuesday with a gun and demanded prescription pain killers, according to police.

The man, wearing a black ski mask, walked into the 40-26 Greenpoint Avenue pharmacy at about 1:30 pm, pointed a firearm at a worker and demanded Vicodin and Percocet– which are known to give users a high.

The suspect was provided with two bottles of Oxycodone, before fleeing. No one was hurt.

The suspect is believed to be a white male, about 6 feet tall and 230 pounds.
