Man wearing burka robs pharmacy in Media

MEDIA, Pa. (WPVI) -- A pharmacy in Media, Delaware County was held up Friday by a man wearing a burka.

It happened in the unit block of West State Street.

Police say the thief demanded opioids and fled.

This same pharmacy was robbed in back in May. In that case the suspect tried to escape on a trolley. But because the trolley was so slow, it took no time at all for police to catch him.
