(NORTH PERTH, ON) – The Perth County Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) are investigating after suspects attended a gas station in the Municipality of North Perth and attempted to steal the cash box from the Automated Teller Machine (ATM).
On November 28, 2020, at approximately 12:30 a.m., two suspects attended the gas station on Mitchell Road South, Listowel, and identified themselves as “security personnel”. The first suspect had an ID badge and opened the ATM with a key. Staff became suspicious when the suspects pressed buttons on the screen, which resulted in an “error”. When an employee confronted the suspects, they quickly left the business in a vehicle.
The suspects are described as:
- Suspect 1 – Male, 5’9″, older, with some grey hair and facial hair, wearing dark glasses, a dark jacket, and a face mask
- Suspect 2 – Male, dark hair, wearing a blue shirt with “security” written on it.
The suspects left in a vehicle, which was a blue BMW 320i, with a licence plate of CPVT925.
