Court records stated that between Nov. 2 and Nov. 5, 2024, King stole drugs from Discount Drug Mart at the intersection of Lyons Road and Yankee Street.
State records show King was a pharmacy technician trainee at the store. Prosecutor’s office staff said King was taking Schedule IV drugs from the pharmacy for his personal use. Schedule IV drugs can include Valium, Ambien, barbiturates, benzodiazepines, anabolic steroids and others.
The Ohio State Board of Pharmacy in November suspended King’s Pharmacy Technician Trainee license based on the allegations.
The misdemeanor charges for drug possession included the pain, anxiety and sleeping medications Lorazepam, Tramadol, Alprazolam, Temazepam, Triazolam and Zopiclone.
King’s arraignment will be held at the Montgomery County Common Pleas Court on April 10.
