LOWER SACKVILLE, NS
Police are asking the public for help identifying two suspects in a mid-day theft of close to $2000 in merchandise from a Canadian Tire store in Lower Sackville.
Around noon on Oct. 22, two men drove a black Dodge Caravan to the side of the Canadian Tire building on Sackville Dr. A few minutes later the van was moved to the front parking lot. It is believed the suspects cut the fence while parked at the side of the building.
They went into the store and filled carts with merchandise including two Husqvarna chainsaws, a KitchenAid Stand Mixer, a Minn Kota Trolling Motor (Endura C2 40, 36 inch) and a Shakespeare Glider Trolling Motor (36 inch, 55 lbs.). The carts were then wheeled outside to the garden centre and the van was moved so that the items could be loaded through the opening in the fence. The van was then driven away.
Suspect 1 is described as a clean-shaven white man between 40 and 50 years old. He was wearing a grey hoodie inscribed with the word "CAT", black track pants, white sneakers, and a black ball-cap with sunglasses on the brim.
Suspect 2 is described as a clean-shaven white man between 40 and 50 years old. He was wearing a green jacket, blue jeans, white sneakers and a black hat.
Anyone with information about this incident is asked to contact Halifax District RCMP, Halifax Regional Police or CrimeStoppers.
