The robber came in through the doors and what happened next is something Kelly Johnson won't soon forget. The 23-year-old Oshkosh man wearing a mask when he walked up to Johnson.
"I thought he was going to ask where something was" she said."
But his tone told her otherwise.
"He said 'Do you think this is funny?' and he used some expletive words and then headed over to the pharmacy and he said give me all your Oxycontin and don't anybody move and don't press any panic buttons."
He then ran out the door and was caught just blocks later.
"It happened so fast," Johnson said. "Then it hit me what could have happened and I broke down a little bit and when it's happening it doesn't hit you until it's over then the adrenaline kicks in and you get a little nervous and shakey like after a car accident."
After hitting the Hostess store, a Pizza King, this Lang Oil gas station and Morton pharmacy today, Johnson wonders what safe really is.
"This is scary, people are just trying to go to work to earn a paycheck to keep a living and you know you can't work at a Dairy Queen you can't work at a gas station and you can't work at a pharmacy without worrying what's going to happen."
As for the suspect he faces four counts of robbery and could make an initial appearance in Winnebago County court as early as Friday.
