Harrisonburg Police are investigating the reported burglary of the Medicap Pharmacy located at 1851 Virginia Ave.

According to HPD, the offenders used prying tools to gain entry through the front door around 3:30 a.m. Wednesday, before fleeing in a white sedan shortly after entering the business.

As HPD officers were investigating the burglary, they learned that the same offenders had broken into a pharmacy in the Fishersville area of Augusta County approximately one hour prior to this incident.

Detectives from HPD and the Augusta County Sheriff’s Office are continuing to work together by sharing information, examining evidence and pursuing investigative leads.
