Manitoba RCMP say they’re looking to identify two suspects in connection with thefts in the RM of Springfield earlier this month.

The first incident took place Oct. 2 at a business at Deacon’s Corner on Provincial Road 207. Police said a man grabbed items from the store’s shelves and took off without paying.

He’s described as a man with a moustache, wearing a light grey baseball hat, a plaid jacket, white shirt, red shorts, and black slides.

On Oct. 12, the Oakbank detachment was called about a break and enter at an Oasis Road property the previous morning.
