Casey Police Chief Adam Henderson announced that federal authorities have resolved the investigation into a break-in at the local Pharmacie Shoppe that occurred several months ago.

Henderson reported during the January 8 City Council meeting that the DEA and Assistant US Attorney’s office issued a press release regarding the case, indicating that suspects have been apprehended in connection with the pharmacy burglary.

“He thanked the officers for their work in apprehending these suspects,” according to the meeting minutes, though specific details about the arrests or charges were not provided during the council session.

The pharmacy break-in had been an ongoing investigation, with federal involvement suggesting the case may have involved controlled substances or crossed state lines. The resolution represents a significant closure for the local law enforcement agency and the affected business.
