Greensboro, Aug. 28—The third of a series of daring robberies of Nowell’s Pharmacy took place Wednesday night when a thief or thieves broke through the window on the north side of the building, entering the store, and stole merchandise amounting to approximately $100. Two other robberies of similar nature have occurred at the drug store in the past month.
The fact that on each occasion the thieves took practically the same amount and same kind of merchandise leads one to believe that all three of the thefts were perpetrated by an identical thief or thieves. Each time, cigarettes and perfume have been the only articles stolen.
Edwin Nowell, owner of the pharmacy, states that all told, $220 in cigarettes and perfumes have been pilfered.
