NANAIMO, B.C., — The Nanaimo RCMP is asking for the public’s assistance in identifying an individual from his distinctive choice of clothing.
On the evening of June 8, at approximately 10:30 PM, the man pictured, entered the University Liquor Store and allegedly attempted to purchase alcohol using a stolen credit card. Unbeknownst to him, the card had already been cancelled, and the transaction was declined. The individual then left, empty handed, while still in possession of the canceled credit card.
The individual is described as Caucasian and approximately 20 to 30 years old. He was wearing a green poncho, orange and white baseball cap, and black gloves.
Investigators are hoping someone in the community recognizes the individual from the description or surveillance image.
“While his bright green outfit may have made him stand out, we’re hoping it’s his identity that the public can help us uncover,” said R/Cst. Gary O’Brien of the Nanaimo RCMP.
If you know who this person is, please contact the Nanaimo RCMP non-emergency line at 250-754-2345.
