In a separate indictment, the grand jury said three Indianapolis men, Eric Lamont Bates, 20, Yasar Jamal Burnett, 18, and Brandon Lee Dawson, 19, conspired to rob another Middletown pharmacy of morphine and oxycodone on April 29.
The jury charged all five men with conspiracy, robbery by force, interference with commerce by threats of violence, and possession with intent to distribute the drugs. Each charge is punishable of up to 20 years in prison.
Middletown police arrested the men on the date of the robberies and filed state charges. Davis was released with conditions, and the other four are being held without bond until trial.
