Police are investigating the theft of methadone from a pharmacy in Springdale.

The break and enter at Main Street Pharmacy happened shortly after midnight on September 7.

A person broke in through the rear of the building and grabbed a large quantity of methadone before fleeing from the pharmacy.

The suspect is described as having an average to slim build, and was wearing dark-coloured clothing with a hood pulled up around their face. They were also wearing a head lamp with a red light.

Surveillance footage also recorded someone in a grey car as well as a person on a bicycle in the area at the time of the theft. They are hoping to speak with those people to help with the investigation.

Anyone with information is asked to contact RCMP at 709-673-3864 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
