A cell phone may lead to the suspects involved in a theft at a business.

Guelph police were called to a store on Stone Road West on Friday night.

Investigators say a man and a woman were seen inside the store taking several boxes of Pokemon trading cards and putting them into shopping bags. They say both left the store without paying for it and ran towards a vehicle.

A store employee followed them to their car. That’s when one of them dropped their cell phone on the ground before driving off.

The value of the Pokemon cards is around $600.

Investigators say the suspects were in their 20s and had medium builds.

The male had black hair with beard and pierced right nostril and wore a white tank top, white jacket, black Chanel hat and jeans.
