The Campbellton RCMP is seeking the public's assistance in connection with a series of thefts in Atholville, N.B.
The thefts occurred between September 30, 2024, and October 24, 2024, when an individual walked into a business on Savoie Street in Atholville on multiple occasions, took merchandise, then left the business without paying.
Police are now releasing surveillance footage photos of the individual who entered the store and the vehicle in connection with the thefts, in hopes that someone may recognize the individual or the vehicle.
The individual is described as a woman, with long brown hair, tall, slim build, and in her forties. She left the business in a white Volkswagen Jetta.
