Engineering Ethics: Please present and defend your views about the following dilemma. Thank you~

A certain woman living in Europe will die from cancer unless she obtains an expensive drug that the doctors think will help her. Her husband, Heinz, cannot afford to purchase the drug. The local pharmacist is charging ten times the cost of making the drug because he was the one who invented the drug and remains sole source for obtaining it.The husband goes to everyone he knows seeking to borrow money, but he manages to raise only half the money needed to purchase the drug. When he asks the pharmacist to sell the drug at a lower price or to let him pay for it later, the pharmacist refuses. In desperation, Heinz breaks into the pharmacy and steals the drug. Was theft right or wrong? Is the wife's right to life inherently more important than the property right of the pharmacist?
