Evangeline Parish Sheriff’s deputies are searching for the person who robbed a pharmacy at gunpoit in a chipmunk outfit.
The robbery occurred just after 12:00 p.m. Saturday, September 19, at the Medicine Chest located at 409 E. Lincoln Road.
Surveillance video showed an armed suspect, in a Chipmunk outfit running from the store’s parking lot to the rear door of the store, forcing an employee back inside.
Here are pictures of the marauding rodent:
Once inside the suspect escorted the employee through the store at gunpoint as she filled his bag with an undisclosed amount of narcotic medication.
After getting the undisclosed amount of medicine from the employee, the suspect walked out of the rear door of the store, and ran westbound towards a nearby apartment complex.
The sheriff tells us the robber wasn't all bad; he took the victim's cell phone, but when she told him she had pictures of her grandkids on the phone, he gave her the sim card.
