While the store manager was taking the order, the pharmacist called 911. The complaint said that that by the time the pharmacist was given the note, both suspects had left.
After surveillance footage photos were shown on NewsCenter 7, the Dayton Daily News and other local media outlets, four local law enforcement officers called Oakwood police to identify Freeman, according to the complaint.
The special agent wrote that on May 5, a citizen informed CVS that the second suspect was Harris. The agent wrote that the alleged leader of a Dayton-area gang known as TOOHUNNID (or 2hunnid) also identified Freeman and Harris.
