Eleven people have been arrested in connection with "pharmacy shopping" at several area businesses during the past few weeks. Investigators with the Statesboro-Bulloch Crime Suppression Team looked into the use of forged signatures on prescription pads, which were used to fraudulently obtain prescription medications, according to a news release issued Monday. After obtaining the medications, the suspects would sell them for a profit on the black market - especially pain medications such as hydrocodone and oxycodone, the news release says.
