The Lake Worth Police Department says two suspects are wanted in connection with an armed robbery that resulted in a Walgreens clerk being seriously injured.

According to police, just before 3:40 a.m. Sunday, Oct. 15, two suspects were seen on surveillance video entering a Walgreens Pharmacy located in the 6200 block of Lake Worth Boulevard. Police said one suspect was armed with a rod-style taser and the other was armed with a handgun.

Police said the suspect armed with the handgun headed straight to the pharmacy area where he grabbed the pharmacist’s head and forced her to remove controlled substances from the secure storage area. Then, the suspect took the pharmacist by the hair and forced her at gunpoint to move to the back office, police said.

At that same time, police said the suspect armed with the taser could be seen grabbing the front desk clerk and forcing her to the ground while tasing her body. The suspect then dragged the clerk to the back office where the pharmacist was being held and kept the clerk on the ground with a gun pointed to the back of her head, police said.
