Police Search For Man Who Spent Night In CVS Pharmacy

STOUGHTON, Mass. (AP) - A man suspected of stealing candy, energy drinks and razors from a Massachusetts pharmacy didn't have to break in.

Police tell The Enterprise of Brockton that the man simply slept in the Stoughton CVS store on Sunday night, then slipped out unnoticed on Monday morning after it reopened.

After reviewing surveillance video, police determined the man entered the store at about 11:30 p.m. Sunday. The store closes at midnight.

When an employee opened the store at 7 a.m. Monday, the man, who was still inside, fled.

It wasn't until Monday afternoon that store employees noticed that items were missing and called police, who reviewed surveillance video and determined the sequence of events.

Police released surveillance images of the man, hoping someone recognizes him.
