Police Arrest Pikesville Man In Pharmacy Robberies

JOPPATOWNE, Md. (AP) ―

Maryland State Police say a Pikesville man wanted for robbing pharmacies has been caught in the act.

Anthony Pierre Willis, 45, is charged with armed robbery and other counts in connection with a robbery of a Rite Aid on Pulaski Highway near Joppatowne.

Police say they stopped him Thursday night as he was walking to a getaway car after the pharmacy was robbed. The officers were conducting surveillance outside the pharmacy, which had been identified as a likely target. Police say he had a wad of cash and a pellet gun tucked in his waistband.

Police suspect Willis in the robbery of two other pharmacies and a restaurant in Harford County.

Charges against Willis are pending in those cases.
