Burglary Suspect Passes Out From Cough Syrup

A Massachusetts teen is facing felony charges after he attempted to rip off a local pharmacy and cure his cough at the same time. MyFoxBoston.com is reporting that Ryan Gelineau was semi-conscious when he was discovered by authorities in the crawl space of the Plainville Prescription Center Monday morning. The 17-year-old reportedly entered through the building's roof, and then proceeded to drink cough syrup and take other medications. Employees were alerted to Gelineau's whereabouts after an alarm on his cell phone went off. Gelineau has been charged with several crimes including breaking and entering, possession of a burglar's tools, and larceny.
