More than $7,000 worth of tools was stolen from a south-end Barrie business Monday morning.
Barrie police say officers responded to the Commerce Park Drive business at 4:50 a.m. on Nov. 25 for a reported break-and-enter in progress.
Upon arrival, police found the front door had been smashed, allowing the suspects to "hastily" enter the business and steal a large quantity of battery-powered tools and assorted electrical supply items, police say.
"Video surveillance clearly showed five males arrive in two motor vehicles and within four minutes flee the area with what had been stolen," police stated in a news release.
The investigation remains ongoing and, from video surveillance that was obtained, police say it was determined that the suspects fled the area westbound on Commerce Park Drive toward Veterans Drive.
Anyone with information can call police at 705-725-7025.
