Collegedale Police said the Rite Aid on Apison Pike was robbed shortly after 3 p.m. on Monday by a man wearing a ski cap.

Witnesses say the suspect came in and was initially asking about back braces, but returned with a folder that contained a note. The suspect’s note said that employees were to give him high levels of controlled substances or he would blow up the bomb inside his bag.

The suspect was described as a white male, approximately 5’10”, stocky build, black ski cap, hazel eyes, and short black beard. He was carrying a black bag. He left the store with approximately $3,500 worth of Oxycontin and Oxycodone, as well as $165 in cash. 

Anyone that has information about this crime, or recognizes the suspect, please call the Collegedale Police Department at 423-396-3133.
