Thirsty thief

Police are hunting the knife-wielding fiend who nabbed bottled water and Coke from a Kings Highway drugstore on June 11.

An employee told police the shoflifter grabbed drinks from the store near E. 16 Street at 5:45 p.m., and, when security tried to stop him, he pulled knife and shouted, “I will slice you,” before rushing out the store.
