Police investigate another smash-and-grab jewellery store robbery in North York

Toronto police are investigating another smash-and-grab robbery from a GTA mall.

Police were called to Centerpoint Mall in North York just after 7 p.m. Friday.

Footage from the scene shows several smashed display cases inside Peoples Jewellers.

Investigators have not provided any further details or any suspect descriptions.

It’s the latest in a spate of robberies across the GTHA.

On Dec. 3, another Peoples Jewellers store was targeted in a smash-and-grab robbery, this time at Hillcrest Mall in Richmond Hill. York Regional Police say are looking for five suspects in that case.

One day later, a group of suspects attended Lukfook Jewellery in Markville Shopping Centre and allegedly stole several items before fleeing. Six people were arrested.

On Friday, Hamilton police arrested five people following a daring robbery at Ancaster Jewellers where the driver of a truck reversed and crashed through the front window.
