Two men robbed the pharmacy inside the Albertsons at Trent Avenue and Argonne Road just after 8 p.m. today, authorities say. The two demanded narcotics before running away, according to Spokane County Sheriff’s Deputy Craig Chamberlin.
The men had their faces covered, had average builds and may be white, Chamberlin said.
