Thomas Mues was charged with robbing the CVS last week after he entered the CVS around 6 p.m. and handed a pharmacy employee a note indicating he had a gun and would shoot them if he was not provided the pills listed.

“This is a armed robbery!” he wrote in a note to the pharmacy. “Please cooperate, I don’t want to hurt you. You are not to alarm anybody or I will shoot the closest person to me!”

The list included the drugs oxycodone, hydrocodone, Xanax, Adderall and liquid codeine. The note also included the pill dosage Mues wanted, authorities said.

Among the demands was every bottle of Viagra in the drugstore on Curry Ford Road, the Orlando Police Department said in a news release.

Police caught Mues in a foot chase after he left the store.

Investigators said Mues admitted to traveling to Orlando to rob the pharmacy, WFTV reported and allegedly confessed to another similar robbery in Central Florida.

Records show Mues is facing robbery, trafficking, and possession charges.
