The Los Angeles Police Department is investigating back-to-back pharmacy burglaries in Tujunga early Monday morning.

The first burglary happened at Miracle Pharmacy in the 7400 block of Foothill Boulevard around 3:10 a.m. The second occurred down the street at Remedy Drugs in the 6000 block of Foothill Boulevard around 3:20 a.m.

KCAL News talked with the owners of Miracle Pharmacy who said they have been burglarized three times before. Vardui Sarafyan, who owns the pharmacy with her husband, said the men stole Xanax along with money from the cash register.

"They always look for "street drugs" to take. We are getting frustrated," said owner Vardui Sarafyan.

The suspects were described as four men believed to be driving a black Dodge Durango SUV that was stolen, according to the LAPD.

Authorities believe the same men are responsible for three other burglaries at pharmacies in San Fernando Valley on October 5.

Anyone with information on the crimes was urged to call 877-LAPD-247.
