FATHER'S DAY turned into a bloodbath at a Long Island pharmacy Sunday leaving four people dead. Cops say the botched heist happened at Haven Drugs in Medford, New York around 10 a.m. That's when a man entered the family-owned business wearing a baseball cap, sunglasses and brandishing a handgun. The stone-cold killer then executed the four people in the store at the time and fled on foot with prescription pills.
Suffolk County cops say two of the victims, Raymond Ferguson, 45, and Jennifer Mejia, 17, of East Patchogue (who was going to graduate from high school next week) worked at the drug store.
The other two victims, Bryon Sheffield, 71, and Jamie Taccetta, 33, were customers. Residents were left in shock by the sinister massacre.
“It’s not like a CVS,” regular customer Stacy Gallagher told The New York Times. “It’s a very homey environment.”
Other witnesses told the Times the pharmacy’s owner, Vinoda Kudchadkar, collapsed near his store after he learned of what happened Sunday morning.
"This is a vicious, horrible crime," said Chief of Detectives Dominick Varrone. "We suspect that robbery was the motive." Cops have videograb of the triggerman as a massive manhunt got underway on Long Island
