Barrie police are searching for a suspect who was wearing a blonde wig during a reported theft that occurred at the Kozlov Mall a few weeks ago.
On Oct. 11, just before 5 p.m., officers say they responded to a report of a shoplifting incident at Talize, a store in the mall.
An investigation found that the suspect selected a number of items, walked to the front of the store and concealed the items in a reusable shopping bag, police say.
The suspect then left the store without attempting to pay for the products, police add.
According to police, the suspect is described as a five-foot-five woman in her 30s wearing a blonde wig, sunglasses, blue leggings, penguin slippers and a burgundy vest over an orange and pink T-shirt.
Officers say anyone with information can contact Const. Osborne of the Barrie Police Service at bosborne@barriepolice.ca or Crime Stoppers anonymously at 1-800-222-8477.
