An opportunistic suspect soured the day for staff at a candy store in Kelowna on Tuesday.
According to a spokesperson for the store — So Sweet, located in the Dilworth Shopping Centre — a man entered the premises around 5:35 p.m., and managed to steal the cash drawer from the register.
He reportedly did so while staff were temporarily in the backroom and got away with a small, undisclosed amount of cash.
Security video captured the man leaving the store with the cash drawer. He can be seen, at one point, with what appear to be $20 bills in his hand
