Paris Pharmacy Robbery

Tuesday, 11 April 2017

A Paris pharmacy is robbed during the lunch hour.

Police say around one Monday afternoon a suspect walked into Pearman's Pharmacy and handed an employee a note demanding drugs.

They say the suspect then fled the business and ended up in a police pursuit with Indiana authorities.

The chase ended in a crash and the arrest of 18-year old Shawn Michael Cabellero.

Pearman Pharmacy owner Stephen Benefiel says he's impressed with the way his employees handled the situation.

Paris Police Chief Mike Henness says no weapon was displayed, but the note implied that he had one.

Cabellero remains in the Vigo County Jail and is facing several charges in both Illinois and Indiana.
