DRUGGIE THIEF INJECTED IN PHARMACY
A drug addict who broke into a Darwin pharmacy injected herself in the neck
while still inside the premises.
Pharmacy workers said the woman, 29, injected herself with two tetanus
vaccine injections and a chicken pox vaccine.
The drugs were taken from a fridge in the dispensary.
The woman had smashed through one of the pharmacy's windows using a
concrete block.
"She was obviously desparate for drugs," one of the Stuart park pharmacy
owners said.
The breakin was about 12.30am on Saturday.
When police arrived the woman was still there and armed with a syringe.
