Staff at a business in the area of Watson Road South and Airpark Drive notified police Tuesday morning that someone had broken into the business.

Investigators say surveillance video shows three suspects arriving in a maroon-coloured four-door Ford F-150 around 3 p.m. Saturday. The truck had a wooden pallet instead of a tailgate.

They say the truck was backed up to a loading dock and items were loaded on to the bed. The suspects then fled the area in the pickup.

Investigators say a similar truck, as well as a white Chevrolet or GMC pickup, arrived at the same place early Tuesday. Three suspects were seen loading the vehicles and fled just after 3 a.m.

They say a total of 875 steel hoops were taken from the business over the course of the two days.

No suspect descriptions were provided.
