Crime spree: The robberies took place over the past two months, mostly involving local Rite Aid pharmacies, but also involving small businesses like the Haze City Smoke Shop in Lower Merion.
Police across the Philadelphia region are working to track down two men who they believe are behind a crime spree that spans three counties.
The robberies took place over the past two months, mostly involving local Rite Aid pharmacies, but also involving small businesses like the Haze City Smoke Shop in Lower Merion. The armed suspects have targeted stores in Philadelphia, Montgomery, and Delaware counties and made off with thousands of dollars in cash.
Detective Keenan says authorities are eager to get these thieves off the streets before they become even more emboldened."Please don't be confrontational," he says. "Money is money and can always be covered by insurance, or returned, or found later. But we can't fix anybody after the fact if you get hurt."
