Or do a partial/fragmentary OCR match on valid addresses in Ohio that align with possible zip code matches and narrow it down to a relatively small potential target set of addresses and individuals.

To target some random dude that received a silly prescription? Why go through all the effort when you could just pick a random residential address?
