Three robbery suspects can be seen climbing over the counter of a District Heights pharmacy in surveillance video recently released by the Prince George’s County Police Department.

On the video, the three suspects jump over the counter and confront a pharmacy employee. Police say one of the suspects had a gun, while a second carried a can of pepper spray.

The suspects reportedly filled a bag with medications, grabbed cash and then ran out of the pharmacy. The employees were not hurt.

Police say the robbery happened about 11:15 a.m. Jan. 10 in the 6100 block of Old Silver Hill Road. Detectives believe the three suspects are also responsible for similar crimes in a neighboring jurisdiction.
