Halifax District RCMP is asking for help from the public to identify suspects following a theft from a pharmacy on Cole Harbour Road.

Last evening, at approximately 6 p.m., two men entered the pharmacy and distracted the store clerk to allow one suspect, believed to be older than the other, to place a number of items in a reusable bag. The clerk confronted and then followed the older suspect who left the store empty handed.  The clerk searched for the reusable bag but noticed the younger suspect leaving the store carrying the same bag. Neither suspects made purchases.

The older suspect is described as a white man, 55-60 years-old, 5-foot-6, with a bit of facial hair, wearing a black jacket with fur trim, a grey hoodie, light jeans and black shoes. The younger suspect is described as a white man, about 40 years-old, 6-foot, with black rimmed glasses, wearing a black jacket, a brown hoodie, black pants and black shoes with white soles.

If you have information about this incident or can identify the suspects, please call Halifax District RCMP at 902-490-5020. Should you wish to remain anonymous, call Nova Scotia Crime Stoppers toll free at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477), submit a secure web tip at www.crimestoppers.ns.ca, or use the P3 Tips App
