MRU #: R26R006

The Edmonton Police Service (EPS) is seeking the public's assistance in identifying a suspect and vehicle involved in a commercial robbery from May.

On Tuesday, May 5, 2026, at approximately 9:21 p.m., a lone male suspect entered a vape shop in the area of Kingsway Avenue and 105 Street. The suspect produced a knife and bear spray before stealing merchandise.

It was reported to police that the suspect then left the area as a passenger in a 2009 to 2011 dark blue Mazda Tribute SUV. The vehicle is believed to have a black roof rack with a tinted passenger side rear window.

The suspect was captured on camera, and investigators are hopeful the public can help identify him.
