Officers believe the suspects entered the home by prying open a bedroom window. They left one small dog outside in the cold during the robbery, as well as a German Shepherd in the garage. Both dogs were unharmed.

“Neighbours saw lights on in the victim’s home around 3:15 p.m., then at 4:15 p.m. they saw two ATVs being driven off the property by two riders wearing helmets and camouflage gear,” police said in the release.
