Officers from the Caledon Detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) have responded to a second armed robbery in Bolton in a week and are requesting the public’s assistance in identifying the suspects.

On September 23, 2022, at approximately 5:27 p.m., Caledon OPP was alerted of a robbery that took place at a business at 18 King Street East in the Town of Caledon. The investigation revealed that at approximately 5:12 p.m., two males entered the business, one of which was holding a firearm, and demanded the location where narcotics were kept. A third male waited outside in the driver seat of an older model black sedan. They fled the scene westbound on King Street East at a high rate of speed with a quantity of currency and narcotics.

The following descriptors were obtained:

A week later, on September 30, 2022, at approximately 10:43 a.m., Caledon OPP responded to an additional armed robbery that had just taken place. Police have information to believe that the suspects and vehicle used are the same. They left with a quantity of narcotics and currency. The vehicle is believed to be an older model black Honda, possibly an Accord. Video surveillance is not yet available. It may be provided at a later date if it may assist in the identification of the suspects.
