Robbery Embezzlement Scheme Targets Two Drugstores
Two local druggists fall prey to a single con artist in a new embezzlement racket. At Zastera Drug Co. a $1.19 order escalated to an $8.81 theft after a delivery boy was asked to fetch $10 in change. The second incident at Brooks Drug Store involved a similar $1 order delivered to 1629 Fifth Avenue SE with the same suspect obtaining $9. The man is described as 35, 5 feet 8 inches, about 155 pounds, in a blue overcoat and grey hat. Farmers allegedly supply about 70 percent of the area’s food.
