Thieves target cigarettes in break-in For the second time in less than a week, Halton police are investigating the theft of thousands of dollars worth of cigarettes from the Canadian Tire Gas Bar on Kerr Street. A total of $18,000 worth of products was stolen during break-ins early last Friday morning and Monday, July 20. The latest break-in occurred at approximately 4 a.m. when two men approached the business and smashed its window, police said. The intruders used large bins to load packs of cigarettes into a waiting U-Haul. Police estimated the stolen property to be worth about $8,000. Surveillance footage captured images of the individuals. The first suspect is described as white with short brown hair. He wore a grey sweater, dark pants, white shoes, black gloves and a yellow scarf, which was wrapped around his face. The second suspect is described as white and wearing an orange sweater, dark pants, dark shoes, yellow and black work gloves and a beige shirt or scarf around his head and face. Police said this incident appears connected to a similar break-in that occurred at the same business earlier that week. On July 20, two thieves stole $10,000 worth of cigarettes from the gas bar and loaded them into a waiting U-Haul. Anyone with information about either of these incidents is asked to contact the Oakville Criminal Investigations Bureau at 905-825-4747, ext. 2216 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477). 3 | Thursday, July 30, 2015 | OAKVILLE BEAVER | www.insideHALTON.com Vehicle crashes into townhouse by David Lea Oakville Beaver Staff No one was injured when a vehicle crashed into a townhouse on Dorval Drive Monday morning. | photo by Graham Paine Oakville Beaver (Follow on Twitter @halton_photog or facebook.com/HaltonPhotog) Halton police say no one was injured after a car crashed into the side of a townhouse on Dorval Drive near North Service Road West, Monday morning.
