Four suspects wearing dark clothing and headlamps, get out of the vehicle, break down the shop's front door and raid the pharmacy -- grabbing pill bottles and whatever they can get their hands on.
One hour later, police say the same group hit a Pacoima pharmacy at Van Nuys Boulevard and Norris Avenue, then went to a pharmacy in Valley Village on Riverside Drive. Police said at this location they stole an entire safe of Schedule II narcotics.
Police say there was a fifth female suspect at one of the locations.
