Sisters man nabbed in drug burglary

Nathan William Griffin, 21, of Sisters, was arrested Sunday night, June 23, after he allegedly tripped a burglar alarm breaking in to Sisters Drug Company on Cascade Avenue.

Deschutes County Sheriff's deputies responded and found a window broken on the side of the business and the suspect still inside. Black Butte Ranch police and Oregon State Police responded as backup.

The deputies took Griffin into custody without incident.

According to sheriff's office reports, Griffin was found to be in possession of prescription narcotics believed to have been taken from the pharmacy.

Deputies also believe Griffin was under the influence of narcotics.

A Deschutes County Sheriff's Office K-9 named "Nicko" was brought in to check the building; no other suspects were found.

Griffin was booked on charges of second degree burglary; first degree theft; second degree criminal mischief; possession of burglar's tools; and possession of controlled substances.
