Toronto police are searching for at least two suspects in a theft and fraud investigation in the Entertainment District totalling more than half a million dollars.
Investigators say just before 7 a.m. on September 4, a vehicle pulled up to a business in the King Street West and Blue Jays Way area. A man exited the vehicle and entered a business, allegedly stealing the point-of-sale machine before getting back into the vehicle and fleeing the scene.
Police say over the next few weeks the suspects then used the point-of-sale machine to commit several frauds totalling more than $500,000.
The male suspect is described as having a medium build. He was last seen wearing blue ripped jeans, a New York Yankees baseball hat, a dark-coloured hoodie, and white shoes.
There was no immediate description for the second suspect who was driving the silver Mercedes-Benz sedan used in the theft.
Police say the vehicle’s front wheels appear to be different than the rear wheels and there appears to be a font plate cover obscuring the license plate.
