At around 7:40 p.m. on Monday, Jan. 24, police said a man and woman went into a pawn shop in the area of 126 Avenue and Fort Road.
The pair went up to the jewelry counter where the man allegedly pulled out a firearm and smashed the display case. The man and woman grabbed what police said was about $10,000 worth of jewelry and ran out of the store.
Surveillance video released by the Edmonton Police Service Wednesday shows the pair was in the store for less than 20 seconds. Both suspects have their faces covered and the hoods of their jackets on at the time.
The man is described as five-feet-eight-inches to six feet tall with a medium build. He was wearing black pants, a blue and orange Helly Hansen jacket and black and white shoes.
