Kennewick police and Tri-Cities Crime Stoppers are seeking the public's help identifying a woman who picked up a forged prescription for painkillers.
The woman picked up the prescription, supposedly for a relative, on June 19 from the Kennewick Safeway's pharmacy, said Mike Blatman, Kennewick police's crime prevention specialist.
The prescription was for 180 oxycodone pills, Blatman told the Herald.
An image of the woman at the pharmacy counter was released Wednesday in a Crime Stoppers wanted bulletin.
Anyone who can identify the woman is asked to call Tri-Cities Crime Stoppers at 586-8477 or go to tricitiescrimestoppers.org . Tips can also be sent by text message by writing "Text TIP 411" plus the message to CRIMES (274637).
All calls to Crime Stoppers are confidential.
Tri-Cities Crime Stoppers pays a cash reward of up to $1,000 for information that results in a felony arrest.
