Arnold Police are trying to identify a man who allegedly entered the Walgreens pharmacy, 3957 Vogel Road, and stole several bottles of alcohol. The thin, Black man was wearing a long, black wig, facemask and multi-colored woman’s sweater, according to police.
The man reportedly entered the business at about 9:35 p.m. Aug. 17 and talked with an employee, who said she knew it was a man because he had a deep voice.

As of Aug. 23, the alcohol had not been recovered and the man had not been identified, Detective Lt. Jeremy Christopher said. He also said Arnold Police are not aware of any similar incidents reported recently in the area.
