Police is hoping some surveillance images might help identify suspects involved in a daylight gunpoint robbery near Oshawa Centre.
On Friday, June 28 at 5:15 pm, a 16-year-old male walked out of the Oshawa Centre to catch a bus home. While approaching the bus stop, he was stopped by three black males in a black Acura.
The rear passenger pointed a firearm at the victim and demanded he hand over the shopping bags he was carrying. The suspects also stole the victim’s wallet. The suspects then drove away, travelling eastbound on King Street.
Suspect #1 is described as male, black, in his early 20s, with long, curly hair. He was driving the vehicle.
Suspect #2 is described as a male, black with a light complexion, with a beard, earrings, glasses and long brown hair in a ponytail. He was wearing a purple 905 Raptors ball cap and was sitting in the front passenger seat.
Suspect #3 is described as a male, black, in his early 20s, with a goatee, wearing glasses. He was sitting in a rear passenger seat. He pointed the handgun at the victim.
Surveillance video captured images of the black Acura, possibly a TLX model with a chrome wing on the rear bumper.
Any information about the suspects or vehicle can be forwarded to D/Cst. Shaw of the Central East Division Criminal Investigations Bureau at 1-888-579-1520 ext. 2764.
