Man sentenced for attempted CVS Pharmacy robbery in Union County

Eric Shingara will serve six years in prison for the attempted hold-up in December.

SELINSGROVE, Pa. — A man will serve at least six years in prison for trying to rob a pharmacy in Snyder County.

Eric Shingara received that sentence for the attempted hold-up last December at the CVS pharmacy inside the Target near Selinsgrove.

Shingara demanded prescription medication from the pharmacist while holding a knife.

The pharmacist told Shingara she couldn't get that medicine, and he fled.

He was later identified and arrested and then pleaded guilty to attempted robbery charges in June.
