Police are hunting those responsible for breaking into a chemist in Southport early this morning.

The thieves managed to get into the Nexus Way pharmacy through the front of the building around 1.45am on Thursday.

Once inside, they ransacked the store before stealing a stack of medication.

They got away in a white hatchback and remain on the run.

The break-in comes just a day after a chemist in Robina was also targeted.

Two people dressed in dark clothing smashed their way into the Cheltenham Drive business through the front glass doors around 12.20am on Wednesday.

They stole a haul of prescription drugs before making their escape, with police still working to track them down.
