The pharmacy at the Shaw’s Supermarket on Western Ave., Augusta was robbed today (Nov. 13) just before 12:30 pm. It is the second time this week that the same location has been robbed.
Hey this was MY idea... GPS chips in certain drug bottles. Well, the New York Police Department wants pharmacies in and around NYC to fight prescription drug thefts by stocking pill bottles fitted with GPS tracking chips.

There was another pharmacy robbery Maine. This time in Sanford. However, there was a quick end to the story. The police got the guy about ten minutes after it happened.
