Thirty robberies at chemists shops in Málaga province, and the authorities are so concerned about the situation that the police have drawn up a special plan to try to give better protection to the chemists and their staff. Working in conjunction with the College of Pharmacists, which is to provide the addresses and phone numbers of every one of the 600 shops, police all over the province will now change their patrol routes to include all the streets in which pharmacies are located, and hope that this will dissuade would-be robbers as well as providing reassurance to the staff. The police will give talks about possible security measures and what to do if a robbery does occur, regular meetings will be held with the councillor for public safety, and the College is promising to provide assistance with legal aspects after a robbery, and to stand as private prosecutor in any court cases resulting from a theft. The number of robberies at pharmacies is already 20% higher than last year, and several establishments have been targeted more than once. The thieves are normally hoping to find drugs such as Viagra which can be sold for a good price on the black market.
