Prescription Fraud Suspect, Who Also Impersonated Police Officer, Sought

Location: Acme Pharmacy, Lantana Drive, Hockessin, Delaware

Date of Occurrence: December 29th and 31st, 2009

Suspect(s): Adam Sawransky, 35, with a last known address of Stevens Forest Road in Columbia, Maryland


Resume: Investigators from the Delaware State Police Office of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs are seeking the whereabouts of Adam Sawransky.

This subject is wanted for a late December incident in which he responded to the Lantana Square Shopping Center Acme, on Lantana Drive in Hockessin, where he presented a fraudulent prescription and obtained the controlled substance Lorazapam.

Strangely enough, two days later, Adam allegedly called back to the ACME, presented himself as a “Newark Police Officer” named “Detective Castlebeck” and inquired about ongoing prescription fraud investigations. (It should be noted that the Newark Police Department does not have a Castlebeck on their staff)

Warrants are on file charging Sawransky with felony Obtaining a Controlled Substance by Fraud and felony Criminal Impersonation of a Police Officer.

Attempts to locate Sawransky have proven futile and the address on file in both Delaware and Maryland are not correct. He has ties to the Dover, Wilmington and Columbia, MD areas. Anyone who may know of his whereabouts is asked to call ONDD investigators at 302-834-2630 ext. 347.
