A 30-year old Liberty Grove man is behind bars after burglarizing a Sister Bay pharmacy early Monday morning.

Deputies arrived at Hometown Pharmacy in the Country Walk Shops during the early morning hours in response to an alarm. Upon arrival, Christopher Bartoli was attempting to leave the storefront with a large bag containing a cash box, a ball-peen hammer, a box cutter, and over 125 bulk prescription medication boxes and bottles. The initial investigation suggests he broke the glass out of the front door to get inside the pharmacy. Following Bartoli’s arrest, his vehicle was towed and a search warrant of his Liberty Grove home was executed. As a result, he may also be charged with possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia in addition to burglary.

The investigation is ongoing and Bartoli will remain in the Door County jail pending a $5000 cash bond.
