The Sacramento Police Department is asking the community for assistance with solving recent robberies of area pharmacies.  

At least two suspects are believed to be related to five separate robberies that recently occurred in the city of Sacramento.  The suspects approach the counter and are displaying demand notes for pharmaceuticals, which also indicate they are armed, although no weapons have been seen.   

-          May 7, 2015, Walgreens (1401 Broadway)

The suspects (pictured below) are described as white or Hispanic.  One of the men is believed to be 20-29 years old and 5’8” tall.  The second suspect was reported to be 19 to 25 years of age and just over 6 feet tall. 

Detectives believe the same suspects may also be responsible for additional robberies outside the city, in the county of Sacramento.  

The Sacramento Police Department urges anyone with information pertaining to this crime to contact the dispatch center at (916) 264-5471 or Crime Alert at (916) 443-HELP (4357) or text in a tip to 274637 (CRIMES).
