Guelph Police are investigating a break-and-enter incident that occurred in the early hours of May 28th at a jewellery store located in Guelph, ON.

Police were dispatched shortly after 3 a.m. to a retail establishment in the area of Paisley Road and Imperial Road South. Upon arrival, they discovered the store’s front glass door shattered and partially open.

Surveillance footage captured a white Chevrolet Camaro with black bumpers pulling into the parking lot around 2:35 a.m. A male suspect exited the passenger side of the vehicle and proceeded to break the glass door using a hammer. After reaching inside to unlock the door, he entered the store, smashed two display cases, and stole several watches along with various other pieces of jewelry.

The male suspect is described as black with a medium build. At the time of the break-in, he was wearing a black and white hooded sweatshirt with lettering on the front, blue track pants, black and white sneakers, a black baseball cap, and a black face mask. He was carrying a black duffel bag.

The driver of the vehicle was not visible on camera.
