A daytime robbery at a Peoples Jewellers in Pickering Town Centre, Pickering, Ont., was captured on camera. The footage, shared by @6ixbuzztv on X, shows at least one of the three masked and hooded suspects smashing glass display cases with what appears to be a hammer. In the background, the person filming can be heard urgently calling for security.
As the robbery unfolds, two mall security officers arrive on the scene, shouting for the suspects to stop. Despite their efforts, the robbers managed to flee the mall.
According to the Toronto Sun, police say, “Approximately three suspects entered the business through the mall and began breaking the glass of the showcases. All suspects fled the mall to a waiting vehicle, prior to police arrival. Officers, with the assistance of the Tactical Support Unit, K9 Unit, and Air1, searched the area but were unable to locate the suspect vehicle.”
Although no injuries were reported, the suspects made off with a significant amount of gold and diamond jewellery. The exact value of the stolen items remains unconfirmed.
