ST. GEORGE — Police are searching for three suspects who broke into a St. George pharmacy Thursday morning before fleeing in their vehicle.
At approximately 4:15 a.m., officers responded to an alarm at Stapley Pharmacy located at 102 E. City Center St., St. George Police Officer Lona Trombley said.
The three suspects – two men and a woman – can be seen on the pharmacy’s surveillance footage attempting to enter the store with a large garbage can.
When a loud security alarm sounds, the suspects can be seen leaving the store without taking anything, getting into a parked car and driving away.
Despite a prompt response by law enforcement, the three suspects fled the scene prior to officers arriving.
“There was evidence of forced entry into the building,” Trombley said, adding that there was damage to the door of the main entrance.
Anyone who recognizes the three individuals in the surveillance video included with this article is asked to call the St. George Police Department at 435-627-4300.
Persons arrested or charged are presumed innocent until found guilty in a court of law or as otherwise decided by a trier-of-fact.
