Calgary police said Thursday that an estimated $200,000 in merchandise was stolen from the Lululemon store in the Mission neighbourhood last month.
According to police, the theft happened during a break and enter at around midnight on Sunday, April 26.
Police said two men entered the store’s storage room and removed boxes filled with clothing and other items. The pair was captured on surveillance cameras.
The first suspect is described as 30 to 40 years old with a medium build, wearing a grey or black baseball hat, black balaclava, black zip-up hoodie with red trim on the inside, yellow and black gloves and blue jeans.
The second suspect is described as having a medium build, wearing a grey and black hoodie with a New Orleans Saints logo on front, black pants and black and white shoes.
Police said Friday they cleared a person of interest in the break and enter. Officers said one of the suspects was pictured wearing a black hoodie with a sports team logo on the front with the initials “CCS” and the number 14 on the shoulder.
“Investigators have since determined that the suspect pictured wearing the hoodie is not the rightful owner of the hoodie. Investigators have spoken with the rightful owner of the hoodie and have cleared them of any involvement or connection to this break and enter,” police said.
“It is believed the rightful owner misplaced the article of clothing, which was later found and used by the suspect captured in the photo.”
Anyone with information on the theft is asked to call the Calgary Police Service’s non-emergency line at 403-266-1234 or contact Crime Stoppers anonymously.
