Two suspects sought following fishing gear theft from Barrie Cabela’s store
Barrie police hope to reel in two suspects after a theft at an outdoor recreation store in Park Place July 28.
The incident occurred at Cabela’s, 50 Concert Way, in the city’s south end around 5 p.m. An employee discovered several pieces of discarded security wrap, which led to an investigation by a loss prevention officer. Video surveillance showed the suspects entering the store and proceeding to the fishing department.
Police report the suspects selected a Lowrance fishfinder, concealed the item in a bag and left the store.
The suspects fled the area in a red two-door sedan, possibly a Pontiac G6.
The first suspect is described as a man, five-foot-six, with a medium build and short blond hair. He is 40 to 45 years old and has a tattoo on his left forearm. He wore a grey Under Armour brand hat, a long-sleeved grey shirt, blue jeans and flip flops.
A second suspect is described as a 40 to 45-year-old woman, five-foot-five, with a thin build and long brown hair. She wore a grey hoodie and denim capris, and carried a black purse.
