London police are searching for four suspects after an armed, attempted jewellery store robbery in the west end of the city.
The four men, who had a hammer and handgun, showed up to RK Forever Jewellery at 490 Wonderland Rd. around 2:30 p.m. Monday. The men tried to get inside the store, but when they were unable to do so they left in a grey sedan.
No one was hurt during the attempted robbery, police said.
The first suspect is described as a Black man, 180 lbs, approximately 25-35-years-old, with an average build. He was wearing black pants, a grey hooded sweatshirt with a blue shirt underneath, white gloves, white facemask, and white winter hat.
The second suspect is a Black man, approximately 25-35-years-old, 6’0”, 190 lbs, with an average build. He was wearing grey track pants, a grey hooded sweatshirt, white running shoes, and white gloves with fluorescent palms.
The third suspect is a Caucasian man, approximately 25-35 years-old, 5’11”, 180 lbs, with an average build and short black hair. He was wearing white running shoes, blue jeans, black hooded sweatshirt, dark baseball hat, white gloves, and a facemask.
The fourth suspect is described a Caucasian man, 5’10”, with a slim-average build. He was wearing a black hooded sweatshirt.
The police street crime unit continues to investigate this incident and asks anyone with information to call them at 519-661-5670 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
This is the second time since the summer the jewellery store has been targeted. On July 27, the store owner was headed to his vehicle in the parking lot when he was confronted by four masked men. He was shot before the men took off. He suffered non-life threatening injuries. No arrests have been made in connection with that incident.
