Toronto police are investigating a daytime theft at a provincial liquor store near Bloor Street West and Royal York Road in Etobicoke at about 2 p.m. on November 9. The retailer said no employees or customers were hurt and that it is supporting the investigation with evidence. Police had not released suspect details or announced any arrests at the time of the report.
In a statement, the retailer described the measures it already uses, including closed-circuit cameras, a covert security task force and contracted guards at selected stores, and said its work with law enforcement led to more than 2,000 arrests in its last fiscal year. Brazen daytime theft is a safety issue as much as a loss issue, and the right response protects staff first while still building the evidence police need.
