Narrator:
The most common crime confronting law enforcement agencies is theft. To the prospective criminal, the field of robbery seems the easiest, and the returns immediate. On April 15th of last year, a baffling series of robberies began. In each case, shipments of antibiotics and narcotics were removed from drug company trucks. For the firs three days, the problem was without solution. The Highway Patrol had no idea exactly how or when the thefts took place.
