Police are asking the public for help identifying two suspects in a daylight armed robbery in Caledon this week.
Shortly after 2:30 p.m. on Wednesday, the Caledon OPP say officers were called to a retail store on McEwan Dr. in Bolton for reports of a robbery.
Police say two men entered the store and made off with a quantity of iPhones and used a handgun during the robbery.
The same suspects also attempted to enter a second retail store just prior to this incident but the men were not able to gain entry to the business, according to police.
The two suspects used a handgun during the robbery and fled the store on foot, but believe they may be operating a white BMW SUV, police say.
Police are now reaching out to the public for help identifying the suspects.

The second suspect is also a black male in his 20’s, is over 6′ tall and has a muscular build. He was wearing a dark blue hoodie and dark pants that were worn low on the waist exposing grey underwear at the back. The suspect wore a dark mask and black Nike running shoes.
