A Billings man was sentenced in federal court to 48 months in prison, followed by three years of supervised release, for a drug theft from a Walgreens pharmacy. The U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Montana announced the sentence in January 2015.

The court also ordered restitution of $19,997.75 to Walgreens, reflecting the loss attributed to the theft.

The case was investigated by the Drug Enforcement Administration and the Billings Police Department. The excerpt available for this entry does not say whether the defendant was an employee of the pharmacy, what controlled substances were taken or how the theft came to light.
