New Plan To GPS Pill Bottles To Thwart Thieves

Description:The New York Police Department wants pharmacies in and around the city to fight prescription drug thefts by stocking pill bottles fitted with GPS tracking chips. Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly outlined the project Tuesday at a California conference on health issues hosted by former President Bill Clinton's foundation. Kelly says the NYPD is concerned about a growing potential for crimes related to the black market for painkillers and other highly addictive prescription drugs. (2:09)
