Armed Robbery Reported Today At Lucky Pharmacy in Petaluma

The pharmacy at Lucky Supermarket on Lakeville Street in Petaluma was robbed today by a man who told the pharmacist that he had a gun and demanded medication, police said.

The Petaluma Police Department was called at 1:45 p.m. after a male suspect, who did not actually display a firearm, allegedly robbed the pharmacy of medication and left the store.

During the robbery, the suspect attempted to hide his face with his T-shirt and a baseball cap, police said. He was described as wearing a camouflage-patterned cap, a black T-shirt, a jacket that appeared to be blue denim with gray sleeves (or possibly a blue denim vest over a sweatshirt), and khaki pants, police said.

Police did not disclose the type or amount of medication taken in the incident.

In addition to this case, investigation continues into two other robberies that occurred earlier in the day under similar circumstances (the first at 5:28 am at Quick Stop, 1510 East Washington Street and the second at a Valero gas station, 910 Baywood Drive).
