A camera stolen from a Burlington store has also robbed the victim of some valuable memories.

The camera and other equipment were taken from Burlington Camera located at 489 Guelph Line just before 4 p.m. on November 14. Police want the public to help identify two people who were caught on surveillance video.

One of the stolen items includes a memory card belonging to an employee of the store. The memory card contains photographs of the employee’s 15-month-old grandson who is currently undergoing treatment for brain cancer. The images on the card are the only copies and are of great sentimental significance to the owner.

The suspects are described as:

Male, white, in his 40’s, grey/black short buzzed hair, approximately 5-foot-10 and 200 lbs. He was wearing a black and tan jacket, black pants and black shoes. He was wearing a medical mask.

The second suspect is a woman, white, in her 40’s, large build, approximately 5-foot-6 and 200 lbs. She has blonde hair tied into a ponytail, was wearing a puffy tan-coloured hip-length jacket, black pants and tan boots. She was carrying a large tan-coloured shoulder bag. She was also wearing a medical mask.

Anyone with information in regards to this incident is asked to contact Sgt. Ismet Brahimir of the Retail Theft Unit at 905-825-4747 ext. 2391.
