Johnston Drug Store Burglarized

web posted March 1, 2013

JOHNSTON – Johnston Police are investigating a burglary at the Maxwell & Halford Drug Store that took place early Monday morning. Another business owner and his wife heading to work noticed the side door to the drug store "kicked open" and remained on the scene until police arrived.

After a Sheriff's Deputy arrived the two officers cleared the building and found no one inside. The owner was allowed to enter and reported the only thing missing was an undisclosed amount of cash from a back register.

No pharmaceuticals were missing from the prescription area of the store.

The scene was processed for evidence. Johnston Police recovered a brick in Sawyers Alley that may have been used in an unsuccessful attempt to break the lock off the door.

An incident report released on Thursday did not include any possible suspects. The burglary is believed to have taken place between 5:30 am and 6 am.

Anyone with information should call the Edgefield County Dispatch at 803-637-5337. You do not need to give your name to provide information.
