Around 10:30 p.m. on January 20, 2022, a woman covered her face and entered a convenience store on Douglas Street in Greater Sudbury. The woman walked to the register and placed a bag on the counter, demanding money from the till and cartons of cigarettes. During this time, the woman kept her hand in her jacket pocket while insinuating that she had a weapon. The woman fled the scene on foot with an undisclosed amount of money and cartons of cigarettes.

Just before 6:00 p.m. on January 26, 2022, the same woman covered her face and entered the same convenience store on Douglas Street in Greater Sudbury. This time, the woman was armed with a baton. The woman threatened the employees and demanded cash before fleeing the scene on foot with an undisclosed amount of money.

Shortly before 8:30 a.m. on March 25, 2022, the woman once again covered her face and entered a convenience store on Eyre Street in Greater Sudbury. She selected various items from the store and placed them in her backpack. The woman then approached the counter and pepper sprayed the employee, fleeing the scene on foot with cash from the register.

Our Break Enter and Robbery (B.E.A.R.) Unit conducted a lengthy investigation into all three incidents and were able to confirm that the same woman is believed to be responsible for all three robberies.
