3 people wanted after commercial robbery in Newmarket: police

Three people are wanted by police after a commercial robbery in Newmarket on Wednesday.

York Regional Police (YRP) say just before 8:30 p.m. on Jan. 8 two suspects entered a store in the area of Davis Drive and Leslie Street and used hammers to smash display cases.

The suspects allegedly told employees they were armed with a firearm, but police say no weapon was ever seen.

Police say the two robbers stole an unspecified number of fragrances before fleeing in a dark-coloured SUV driven by a third person.

YRP are now looking for someone they describe as a white man in his 20s, with a medium build and wearing black clothes and yellow gloves.

They’re also searching for a white woman who was described wearing a black jacket with fur and black pants at the time of the robbery.

Anyone with information is asked to contact police or Crime Stoppers.
