Ottawa police are calling on the public to help them identify a man who they suspect robbed a business in Ottawa’s west end on July 30, saying they’ve hit a dead end in their investigation.
In a news release Wednesday morning, police described the alleged shoplifter has having short hair and a full beard. He was wearing a grey, long-sleeve shirt and was seen carrying a backpack, the statement said.
A spokesperson for the Ottawa Police Service declined to provide further information about where the theft took place or what was stolen, saying officers do not want to compromise their investigation by releasing additional details.
