Carver County Authorities Seek Walgreen's Theft Suspect

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) -- The Carver County Sheriff's Office is seeking the public's help in locating a man who is suspected of stealing from a Walgreen's in mid-July.

Carver County Sheriff Jim Olson says his officer received a call on July 18, 2015 of a simple robbery in progress at the Walgreen's, which is located at 600 West 79th Street in Chanhassen.

The victim reported that a man entered the store wearing gloves and displayed a note demanding Oxycodone. The suspect then fled with an undisclosed amount of Oxycodone before deputies arrived. There were no injuries.

The man is described as a white male in his late 20s or early 30s, 5-feet-10 to 6-feet-tall with a full beard that's reddish in color. He possibly left in a dark-colored SUV similar to a Land Rover or Range Rover.

Anyone with information is asked to call the sheriff's office at 952-361-1212 and after hours at 952-361-1231. Anonymous tipsters can leave a message at 952-361-1224.
