Three individuals brazenly robbed White Carat Co., a jewellery store located at Bramalea City Centre in Brampton, Ont. Hoods up and ski masks on, they entered the store and demanded money and jewellery. Armed with hammers, they then began smashing display cases and grabbing merchandise. 

An Instagram video[1] uploaded by the store shows mall security apprehending the suspects. While they were able to disarm and detain one individual, two fled the scene on foot. Neither store staff nor mall security personnel have reported any injuries as a result of the incident.

Peel Regional Police Central Robbery Bureau charged the apprehended individual, 18-year-old Evan Sosa-Reyes from Brampton, with robbery and wearing a disguise.

The investigation is ongoing.
