On November 25, the police were alerted after a person stole drug-classified medicine from a pharmacy in Lindesberg.

A man in his 40s has now been charged, suspected of robbery.

The man is said to have threatened staff in the store with a knife and thus forced himself to take drug-classified medicine to a value of more than SEK 5,000.

In addition to robbery, the man is also charged with drug offenses.

The pharmacy demands that the suspect pay damages of SEK 57,000, for, among other things, compensation for the time the pharmacy was forced to close.
