A man alleged to have perpetrated the armed robbery of a pharmacy in Toowoomba, Queensland has been found dead.
Police confirmed they had found a body in the city's western suburb of Newtown, adjacent to items which were "directly linked" to the robbery at knifepoint of the Mylne St chemist on Wed last week, according to the Courier Mail.
According to a police spokesman, the man escaped by bicycle with a quantity of prescription drugs.
The bike was later found dumped in a lane, while the pharmacy staff were left shaken but uninjured.
"The drugs that he stole are drugs that we have a great concern for being out among the general public," the officer said.
The man's death is not being treated as suspicious.
