Halifax District RCMP is asking for the public's assistance in identifying persons of interest in shoplifting investigations.

Yesterday, at approximately 12:08 p.m., a woman entered a drug store on Forest Hills Pky. in Cole Harbour. Soon after, another woman and a man entered the store. They are believed to be involved in the theft of 18 bottles of fragrance with a total retail value of more than $2,000. The first woman appeared between 18 to 25-years-old, approximately 5-foot-3 and brown hair. The man, approximate height of 5-foot-10 was described as having brown facial hair and wearing thick framed eyeglasses. The woman with the man is described as 5-foot-6 and brown hair.

The same three individuals were seen less than an hour later at another drug store on Portland St. in Dartmouth but left without incident. These persons are also persons of interest in recent thefts of similar nature in both New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Halifax District RCMP at 902-490-5020. Should you wish to remain anonymous, call Nova Scotia Crime Stoppers toll-free at 1-800-222-TIPS(8477), submit a secure web tip at www.crimestoppers.ns.ca, or use the P3 Tips App.
