Horseshoe Bay Police Department investigators arrested a Burnet County man on charges of fraud in connection with the Bay Pharmacy burglary, which occurred in the early morning hours of March 18, officials said April 13 in a statement.

Investigators developed Russell Coty Powers, 30, of Burnet County as a person of interest after obtaining information from several pharmacies in the region regarding possible prescription drug abuse by Powers, according to the statement. 

Horseshoe Bay investigators arrested Powers April 8 at his Burnet County residence after getting an arrest warrant from Calvin Boyd, Burnet County Justice of the Peace, earlier this month.

He was released on $7,500 bond April 9, according to jail records.
