The Edmonton Police Service released surveillance images of two carjacking suspects on Tuesday as they work to make arrests in connection with a robbery on the city’s north side late last month.

At about 11:30 a.m. on Aug. 30, police said someone reported to them that a woman had been carjacked.

They said she was sitting in her parked car in the area of 121 Avenue and 103 Street when a white sedan pulled up behind her.

“A female exited the sedan and approached her (the victim) on foot, before requesting that she call a cab for her,” police said in a news release on Tuesday. “As the complainant was helping the female, a male exited the same vehicle, approached her and demanded the keys to her vehicle.
