The incident, which took place around 11:30 p.m. on Dec. 13, saw two suspects enter a jewellery store near Dundas St. E and Highway 427 via the roof. Once inside, the individuals used power tools to break through a concrete cinder block wall and access the shop’s safe.
Approximately $750,000 worth of jewellery and gold was stolen, Peel Police say.
The suspects were seen fleeing in a silver Dodge Journey. One of the individuals is described to have “a very distinct gait,” police report.
