MAKAWAO (AP) — Maui police say a man with a gun stole OxyContin pills from the Makawao Town Pharmacy.
Police say a man wearing a hooded jacket and a bandanna over his face brandished a black pistol Tuesday afternoon before running out of the pharmacy with an undetermined amount of pills.
A woman who answered the phone Wednesday at the small, family-owned business referred questions about the robbery to her grandfather, who owns the store. He couldn’t immediately be reached for comment.
Police are searching for the suspect. The hooded jacket was found near the pharmacy.
In February, police said a man with a gun jumped over the counter of a Longs Drugs pharmacy in Kula, pointed the weapon at a pharmacist and stole more than 1,000 pills of the powerful painkiller.
