Fort Simpson police are asking for help identifying three people suspected of breaking into the village Northern store’s gas station.
RCMP say “three young men appeared to break through the front glass door” at around 2:30am on Tuesday, August 3, using what officers believe may have been a tire iron.
“They proceeded to take merchandise including chips, drinks, and flavoured rolling papers,” said police, citing security footage of the incident.
The suspects’ faces were covered in that footage. All three were wearing dark grey and black clothing.
