The incidents were related to fraud, break and enter and theft

Richmond RCMP recently posted photos of five individuals in the hopes of identifying the suspects for three separate cases.

The three cases, which involved a fraud attempt, an alleged break and enter and a theft, took place between October 2022 and January 2023.

The first incident (file number: 2022-28967) was a suspected fraud attempt, which happened at around 5 p.m. on Oct. 22, 2022 at a business on the 8000 block of River Road near Capstan Way.

“A female was allegedly in possession of a piece of identification that did not belong to her,” said Richmond RCMP spokesperson Cpl. Adriana O’Malley, who added the suspect left the business before police arrived and left the ID behind.

The second incident (file number: 2022-33241) was an alleged break and enter at around 4 p.m. on Dec. 3, 2022 in a parkade on the 8900 block of Patterson Road near Garden City Road.

Three suspects, two males and one female, allegedly entered the secure parkade, smashed a car window and stole a MacBook computer, according to O’Malley.

All three suspects are described as Caucasian. The first man wore a green cap, red and green checkered shirt, blue jeans and carried a red or blue bag, while the second man was dressed in black with a blue baseball hat. The woman wore a black jacket and blue cap.

The last incident (file number: 2023-1892) happened at around 3 p.m. on Jan. 18 this year in a store on No. 1 Road between Blundell and Francis Roads. A man had allegedly stolen approximately $350-worth of merchandise from the store.

According to O’Malley, the suspect is approximately 50 to 60 years old with dark, balding short hair.

“He was wearing black prescription glasses, jeans, blue hoodie and black parka with a high visibility construction vest on top. He was also carrying a construction helmet,” she said.

Anyone with information about the identities of the five individuals are asked to contact Richmond RCMP at 604-278-1212 or email [email protected] and quote the respective file numbers.
