Facing charges of break and enter and robbery and possession of a dangerous weapon is a 35-year-old woman of Leslie Street in Sudbury.

Police are also looking for a second suspect, a man, described as being a white male, about five-foot-six, with a slim build and short light brown or blonde hair with blue eyes.

The same suspect is believed to be involved in two brazen robberies of the Lively IDA Pharmacy last week.

Just after noon, a lone male walked into the pharmacy and attempted to rob the clerk of drugs. He allegedly had a weapon, however, none was brandished and the culprit left the store.

He was described as a male between six feet and six-foot-three with a slim build weighing approximately 150 pounds. He was wearing a blue, three-quarter length winter jacket, dark toque and unusually large sunglasses.

Around 8:20 pm a man matching the same description again entered the store, this time brandishing a knife at the clerk. Anyone with further information is asked to contact Greater Sudbury Police at 675-9171, ext. 2612.
