Chestermere RCMP investigating attempted robbery at local pharmacy

The suspects are believed to have been involved in a robbery earlier in the day.

The Chestermere RCMP is investigating an attempted robbery Tuesday afternoon.

 

At approximately 3 p.m., on Dec. 20, Chestermere RCMP members responded to a robbery at a pharmacy on Merganser Drive.

 

Two males attempted to steal items from a safe in the pharmacy, but were unsuccessful, before fleeing the scene in a white Acura.

 

The vehicle has a broken driver’s side taillight and damage to the front bumper. 

 

RCMP believes that the vehicle was the same vehicle used in a robbery at an Airdrie pharmacy that occurred at 1:40 p.m., on Dec. 20, a Chestermere RCMP media release said.

 

RCMP describe one suspect as slender and approximately 6’4,” and the other suspect as approximately 5’9” and wearing pink gloves, both suspects have a dark complexion. 

 

Anyone with information regarding the robbery is asked to contact the Chestermere RCMP at 403-204-8777 or local police.
