Minutia about pharmacy:

File this under weird pharmacy news.

A guy robs a CVS. His brother manages it. Is it the case of an inside job? Well read below to find out. Then again, who ever heard of sticking someone up not with a water gun, but a water nozzle? The entire article is copied below.
It's not quite as strange as a guy hitting a pregnant relative with a cheeseburger & pushing her because he disagrees with something she said, or an adult acting out because he can't play certain games, though normally children act out, not adults.

Naples man accused of robbing store with water hose nozzle

Posted: May 29, 2014 1:25 PM CDT Updated: May 29, 2014 6:18 PM CDT



A man armed with a water hose nozzle is accused of robbing a Naples CVS store managed by his own brother.
Akeem Rendell Arnold, 23, of Naples, allegedly tried to steal over $14,000 shortly before closing, according to a police report.
Police say Arnold wearing a mask and dressed in black approached the store manager, who is his brother, while he was outside taking the trash out.
Arnold allegedly put what felt like a gun or knife to the manager's back and told him to re-enter the store against his will at 294 9th street South, according to the police report.
Once inside the store, Arnold is accused of hitting the manager over the head with the garden hose nozzle, taking money from the store's safe, and hog-tying him with a roll of plastic wrap.
Arnold then made a run for it, and police apprehended him along US-41 with a backpack containing the money, the garden hose nozzle, a mask, bandana and multiple pairs of gloves.
Reports show it took two pepper sprays and handcuffs to get Arnold under control.
Customers on Thursday were surprised by what happened.
"If that's true, that's really really shocking to hear that, and surprising what can happen within families," said Glynn Huntington, CVS customer.
Naples police lieutenant John Barkley credits the CVS manager, David Arnold's quick thinking for getting Akeem Arnold caught so quickly.
