London police searching for two suspects wanted in attempted armed robbery

The London Police Street Crime Unit are searching for two suspects wanted for an attempted armed robbery that occurred over the weekend.

Police say on Sunday, a woman reported being approached by two males, one of who held a handgun, when she used a remote start to warm up her car on the 1100 block of Adelaide Street North.

The woman told police the men got into her vehicle and demanded she hand over her keys.

The woman then fled, and called police while still holding her key fob, making the vehicle not drivable, police said.

Police have been unable to locate the suspects and are asking for public assistance.
