Pfizer has become the latest drugmaker to fall prey to cargo thieves in the USA, losing a full truckload (FTL) shipment of assorted medicines en route from Memphis to a CVS facility in Rhode Island.
All told around 13,000 packs of assorted generic medicines in 392 cases were seized in the robbery with a value of around $66,000, according to an alert issued by the Pharmaceutical Cargo Security Consortium. The trailer was taken whilst parked at a secure yard in Jackson, Tennessee, operated by the Navajo trucking company, in the early hours of May 14.
