OPS looking for help in identifying robbery suspects

The Ottawa Police Service (OPS) is asking for the public’s help in identifying a pair of suspects involved in a robbery at a store at the Trainyards on Terminal Avenue last month.

At approximately 11:55 a.m. on Sept. 15, the two suspects entered a business, selected items totalling over $400 and left the store without making any attempts to pay.  When the security guard approached the suspects outside of the business, one suspect made threats to the guard and brandished what appeared to be a firearm.

The security guard was not injured.

Suspect one is described as a white male, 20-30 years-old, 5’8”, slim build with brown hair in a bun. He was last seen wearing a purple hooded sweatshirt with white writing, grey sweatpants, back and white running shoes and a black mask on his face.

Suspect two is described as a white male, 50-60 years-old, 5’5”, medium build, with dark hair and dark facial hair. He was last seen wearing a green jacket, blue pants, red and black running shoes and a green camouflage ball cap. He was also pulling a black suitcase.

Anyone with information as to the identity of these individuals, or information about this incident, is asked to contact the OPS Robbery Unit at 613-236-1222, ext. 5677.

Anonymous tips can be submitted by calling Crime Stoppers toll-free at 1-800-222-8477 or at crimestoppers.ca.
