RCMP continue to look for a second suspect in the alleged theft of a defibrillator from Acadia University.

Police say two men were seen on security footage taking the device from the Beveridge Arts Centre on Feb. 8.

A defibrillator is a potentially life-saving device that applies an electric shock to restore the rhythm of a fibrillating heart.

RCMP released photos of the two men Thursday to the media.
