UPDATE: In an update on Jan. 23, Ottawa police said they had identified the two suspects and their investigation into the break-and-enter continues.
Ottawa police need help identifying two men who they claim stole 30 chainsaws collectively worth more than $25,000 from a trailer in the city’s southwest end last June.
Two men broke into a trailer in the 1000 block of Moodie Drive, just west of Highway 416, around 11:45 a.m. on June 22, 2019, according to a statement from police on Wednesday.
The police service claims the two suspects stole the equipment and left the area in “an older-model green pick-up.”
Police describe the first suspect as a 35- to 45-year-old man with a medium build. He was wearing blue jeans, a blue t-shirt and black gloves during the alleged break-and-enter, police say.
The second suspect is a 40- to 50-year-old man with a heavy build, according to police. He was also wearing blue jeans and blue t-shirt, as well as black and gold gloves, a dark ball cap and sunglasses, police say.
Investigators urge anyone with information about this break-and-enter to call 613-236-1222, ext. 2655 or to submit a tip through Crime Stoppers.
