A prescription drug scam visited upon a pharmacy chain in Fair Oaks has gone federal, Sacramento County sheriff's officials said.
Last Thursday evening, sheriff's deputies said they arrested three men on suspicion of obtaining at least two fake prescription orders from the CVS Pharmacy at 5420 Dewey Dr.

Sheriff's department spokesman Dep. Jason Ramos said the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency's involvement raised the case's status to "a continuing federal investigation" and that he would have to "refrain from divulging certain things in the interest of protecting the integrity of their case."
