2 Chicago women face felonies for trying to fill false prescription at U.P. pharmacies

NEGAUNEE, Mich. (WZMQ) – Two Chicago women are facing felony charges after an investigation into obtaining medication with a false prescription at U.P. pharmacies.

Detectives from the Upper Peninsula Substance Enforcement Team (UPSET) conducted the investigation on March 2.

Detectives were notified by staff at Snyder’s Pharmacy of two people trying to get prescription medication from several Snyder Pharmacies in the area. The suspects had a fraudulent prescription that was verified by the pharmacy and detectives.

On March 3, UPSET detectives and Michigan State Police troopers made contact with the suspects as they were leaving the Snyder’s Pharmacy in Negaunee. The suspects resisted arrest by locking their doors and ignoring officers’ commands when told to get out of the vehicle.

The two women were eventually taken into custody at the Marquette County Jail on felony charges related to obtaining a fraudulent prescription and resisting arrest.

UPSET was assisted by the Michigan State Police Negaunee Post and coordinated the investigation with Ishpeming Police Department and Negaunee Police Department.
