men walked into a pharmacy, tied up employees and ran off with money, according
to police.
The robbery happened at 11:10 p.m.
on December 21, at the Rite Aid located at 260 Versailles Road.
Surveillance video captured the men
rushing in. One man pulled out a gun instantly while the other man tried to
pull down a metal door that prevents people outside of the store to see in.
The men then bound employees with
zip ties. The men drug one employee by the collar and made them open a safe.
Frankfort Police Major Fred Deaton
explained, "Their potential for violence is at a pretty high level. The
way they conducted themselves in robbing the store, they in fact could
be a threat to the safety of the community."
