Police have released photos of two men related to a bank robbery and are asking for the public's assistance in identifying the men.
The first set of photos show the suspect in an early evening robbery that took place at a bank near the Kennedy Road and Steeles Avenue East area on Oct. 7.
Staff Inspector Mike Earl explained they now need any information available in order to continue their investigation.
"If we had a lead, I wouldn't be doing this," he said. " Our leads have gone dry so we're looking for the public's assistance in trying to identify the person of interest or anybody that has any information on this bank robber whatsoever."
According to police, at around 6:35 p.m., the man entered the bank armed with a gun and wearing a Halloween mask. He pointed the gun at two tellers, gave them a black duffle bag and demanded they fill it with money. The suspect then fired a shot at the ceiling and fled the scene with the money.
He is described by police as white, between 5 feet, 5-inches (165 cm) and 5 feet, 9 inches (175 cm) tall.
Police also noted the suspect left the scene in a green, mid-90s Nissan sedan.
The second set of photos show a person of interest who police say deposited marked bank bills in a car wash coin dispenser less than a week after the robbery. They believe he may be connected to the crime. He is seen in the security photos wearing black clothing with white markings, including the sequence "VT-081" on his left sleeve.
Police are hopeful the clothing may be distinct enough for someone to identify, Staff Insp. Earl said.
"Somebody may recognize that as some type of company work wear," he said.
It's not clear whether the person of interest and the suspect are the same person, Staff. Insp. Earl said, but police believe information about one could lead them to the other.
"I can't say it's the same person because of the mask," he said. "But I mean they're very similar in build and stature ... he's a person of interest that no doubt, in my view, will lead us to who the actual person is."
