Pillay says nobody was physically harmed, and no shots were fired.

The suspects then fled the scene with cash and cannabis products in a pickup truck, but no licence plate was obtained.

However, today (Mar. 9) around 3:00 a.m, a brown GMC Canyon truck was found near River St. in Kamloops, and was determined to be the truck used by the suspects in this robbery.

The vehicle was also previously reported as stolen from Chase, B.C.

“Illegal cannabis retailers remain an attractive target to criminals because of the real or perceived hesitance the operators have in reporting crime to the police,” says Pillay, “In comparison, legal storefront operations are obligated to adhere to store security requirements, employee training, qualifications and sell product that comes from a safe supply chain that is easy to identify and trace back.”

Now, RCMP are seeking the public’s assistance in this investigation.

If you recognize these suspects, saw this pickup truck or have any information about this crime, please contact Kamloops RCMP at 250-828-3000.
