81-YEAR-OLD STRIKES PHARMACIST IN CROSSVILLE AFTER GIVEN WRONG MEDS

On Friday, City police were dispatched to Crossville Walgreens in reference to an assault. When they arrived, they spoke with a male who stated that one of the pharmacists had been assaulted.  The witness alleged that around 4:53 PM, 81-year-old William Fulks came in to pick up his prescriptions and he was upset because he had gotten the wrong medicine. The witness stated that Mr. Fulks was becoming more and more irate at the pharmacist and the pharmacist walked away.
