He returned to the same drugstore about 4:40 p.m. on Dec. 29, again taking multiple over-the-counter medications before fleeing, cops said.

Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 800-577-TIPS (8477). The public can also submit their tips by logging onto the Crime Stoppers website or can text their tips to CRIMES (274637), then enter TIP577. All calls are strictly confidential.
