Three Guns, One Safe. Police Need Your Help.
Three armed suspects walked into a Richmond Hill business, demanded cash and left with a safe.
At approximately 2:10 p.m. on Wednesday, November 4, three suspects entered a commercial business in the area of West Beaver Creek Road and Highway 7. Armed with firearms, they demanded cash before fleeing in a waiting vehicle with the safe. Nobody was injured.
The getaway vehicle is a white Honda Odyssey with no front licence plate and damage to the passenger-side rear wheel well. It's the kind of detail a witness might remember.
Who police are looking for
All three suspects were described as male, Asian, and speaking Mandarin, each carrying a firearm:
- Suspect #1: medical face mask, black puffer jacket, white gloves, black jogging pants with white markings, black hoodie, white high-top shoes with red markings — holding a black firearm
- Suspect #2: black toque, blue medical mask, navy raincoat, one white glove, navy shorts with a red Adidas logo — holding a brown firearm
- Suspect #3: black toque, blue medical mask, black sunglasses, navy sweater, white gloves, black pants, white shoes with black sides
Police have released surveillance stills showing all three suspects and the getaway vehicle. Anyone with information can contact York Regional Police's Hold-Up Unit at 1-866-876-5423, ext. 6630.
No charges have been laid — the suspects remain unidentified.
The Twikup Take
The vehicle is already hard to miss: a white Odyssey with no front plate and a damaged rear wheel well. The clothing is just as specific, from the one white glove to the red Adidas logo on navy shorts. Police have released the images. Someone has likely seen these outfits.
