(KSL News) -- Provo Police are looking for suspects after two separate robberies of a drug store.

Police say a man in his 20's went into the pharmacy last week on both Tuesday and Saturday, demanding the drug Oxycotin. In both cases a man passed a note to the pharmacists.

Capt. Rick Healey, Provo Police Dept: "It was a threatening type note, but the note didn't necessarily threaten there was a gun involved either."

On Tuesday the suspect got away with five bottles of the drug. On Saturday, the robber got away with a much larger amount.

Police are investigating if the same man is responsible for both thefts.
