Mounties in Maple Ridge, B.C., have released images of suspects believed to be responsible for a food bank break-and-enter.
According to police, on Jan. 5, around 5:30 a.m., two suspects broke into the non-profit organization on Dewdney Trunk Road.
“The suspects entered the building and (left) a short time later with a safe,” said Ridge Meadows RCMP Cpl. Julie Klaussner. “This is really disheartening to have happened after the holidays.
“These individuals are reprehensible and we will do everything that we can to locate these individuals and hold them responsible for their crime.”
The building that was broken into housed the Friends In Need Food Bank, according to the manager.
Evan Seal contacted Global News on Saturday. He says not only was their safe stolen, but also a few laptops and that the food bank’s entryway was damaged.
Seal said the suspects pried open the front door, damaging the door and door frame in the process.
Police describe the first suspect as wearing a Nike bucket-style hat, red bandana, black jacket, grey gloves, grey pants and red shoes while also carrying a duffle bag.
The second suspect is described as wearing a black Kappa jacket, pants and black Nike shoes.
Anyone with possible information is asked to contact the Ridge Meadows RCMP at 604-467-7647.
