Suspect caught on tape ransacking pharmacy in Boca

BOCA RATONBoca Raton Police detectives are using surveillance video in an effort to crack a burglary at the Boca Raton Pharmacy at 625 NE Spanish River Blvd.

Officers responded to an alarm just after 11 p.m. June 4. When the first officer arrived, the police report said, doors to the pharmacy were locked, but the door to a massage parlor next door was unlocked.  Once the massage parlor was cleared, officers noticed that several ceiling tiles were knocked down.

Unable to get in touch with anyone from the pharmacy, officers broke a small window to gain entry.  Once inside, they noticed ceiling tiles and an air conditioner vent on the floor.  The pharmacy also appeared to have been ransacked, with an empty cash register on the floor near the back door, police said.

Once the owner arrived, officers viewed the pharmacy’s security video which shows a male falling through the ceiling and ransacking the store.  No drugs were taken, police said, but the suspect took about $200 from the register.

Anyone with information is asked to call Detective Mark Horowitz at 561-338-1392 or text a tip to CRIMES (274637), in the text type BRPD and the tip.
