Woman abducted in CVS parking lot

York City Police are investigating the abduction of a woman from the CVS on South Richland Avenue. At around 9 a.m., a woman making a pharmaceutical delivery to the CVS was approached by two men, one holding a handgun, and was forced into her vehicle, a delivery van.

The van was seen traveling south on South Richland towards I-83. The victim was handcuffed by the men during the abduction. The two drove the van a short distance on I-83 South and pulled over to the side of the road near the Leader Heights exit.

The suspects covered the victim’s head and forced her into the back of the delivery truck before fleeing the vehicle. An undetermined amount of pharmaceuticals were taken from the delivery van and the men fled the scene in another vehicle, traveling southbound on I-83.

The first suspect is described as a 5’10″ male, around 200 pounds, in his 50′s with medium complexion. He was wearing a blue hooded sweatshirt, blue jeans, a black jacket, navy blue knit hat, black gloves and large wire rimmed glasses.

The second suspect is described as a 5’10″ male, around 200 pounds, in his 40′s with a medium to dark complexion. He was also wearing a blue hooded sweatshirt, blue jeans, a dark grey knit hat, black gloves and had a scruffy beard. He was holding a black handgun during the abduction.

Police are searching for the vehicle they fled in, a grey pick-up truck. Anyone with information is asked to contact the York City Police at 717-849-2219 or 717-846-1234. Anonymous tips can be left on the Tip Line at 717-849-2204.

    Smelling like either an inside job or a fake holdup.
    Why do banks use armored vehicles and drugstores use couriers in automobiles?

    Amazing that no one knows what drugs were taken. Where is the accountability?

    Every time someone gets robbed I see someone saying its an inside job. I feel for this woman she feared for her life and thought she might be sexually assaulted.

    What is a "medium" complexion? If they were Caucasian it would have been clearly stated.
