ROBBERS HIT UP CVS AND FOR WHAT PURPLE DRANK

You can't make this shit up people. Two men held up a Buckhead CVS store early Thursday, but the robbers weren’t after money. Police said the suspects only took bottles of a codeine-like syrup used to make a purple drink popularized in rap and hip-hop lyrics.
The suspects, wearing bandannas over their faces, entered the store on Peachtree Street near Piedmont Hospital shortly after 3 a.m., according to Atlanta police Capt. Van Hobbs.

One was armed with a handgun and the second man “had his hand in his pocket,” Hobbs said. “Don’t know if he actually had a gun, or whether he was faking that he had one.”
The men forced an employee into the pharmacy area at the back of the store, according to Hobbs.
The pharmacist saw them coming, “and he was able to duck and get away, so they had to go back there on their own,” Hobbs said. “They went back in the pharmacy area and took some promethazine -- it’s a codeine-type syrup.”
The robbers took six or seven 10- to 12-ounce bottles of the syrup, he said.
