Jewelry thief caught on camera, Laval police searching for suspect [Video]

Laval police (SPL) are searching for a suspect in a brazen jewelry robbery where a man was caught on security cameras making off with a display case loaded with gold chains with an estimated value of around $20,000.

The SPL posted a video on its social media accounts showing the white male with a shaved head asking to see a piece of jewellery at a Chomedey area store. When he gets the display case, he runs off.
