Police are searching for four individuals following a smash-and-grab robbery at Yorkdale Mall on Wednesday night.
Investigators say around 8:45 p.m. four males entered a jewelry store in the mall. One of the suspects pointed a gun at employees while the others began smashing display cases with hammers. No one was injured in the heist.
The thieves fled the scene in a newer model grey SUV with an unknown quantity of jewelry and cash.
The four suspects are described as being approximately five-foot-eight, all having slim builds and all were wearing masks and gloves. Three of the four were last seen wearing dark hoodies. One suspect was last seen wearing grey pants, black shoes and carrying a black and red knapsack. Another suspect was last seen wearing black pants and black shoes. A third suspect was last seen wearing a white shirt, dark pants and black shoes. The fourth suspect was last seen wearing a grey hoodie, black shoes, and black pants.
This is the second jewelry store robbery at the high-end mall in the last month and a half.
On Dec. 5, 2023, three suspects staged a smash-and-grab robbery at the Cartier store just before closing time. No employees or customers were injured in that incident.
