Woman facing charges for alleged prescription fraud


Salina Police arrested a woman Monday for allegedly attempting to fraudulently obtain prescription Hydrocodone and Amoxicillin.

Deputy Police Chief Carson Mansfield said that on Saturday, the pharmacy at Salina’s Wal-Mart received a call from a woman claiming to be a nurse from a Salina medical office asking the pharmacy to fill a prescription for 30 tablets of each drug. Pharmacy officials were suspicious of the person who arrived to pick up the drugs.

Another call came to the pharmacy Monday for a 30-day supply of the same drugs for another individual. That individual was arrested when she arrived to get the drugs, Mansfield said.

The suspect, Sunnie Marie Mitchell, 32, of Salina, is facing two counts of obtaining a prescription by fraudulent means.
