Victoria Police are asking for the public’s assistance in identifying a man who allegedly stole one very specific kind of liquor from the same store four separate times.

At around 8:45 p.m. on Sunday, April 18th, staff from a business in the 2600-block of Quadra Street reported to police that a man had stolen several bottles of whiskey from their store.

The most recent act was caught on surveillance, and VicPD describe the suspect as an Indigenous man around 30-years-old, with black hair and a medium build.

At the time of the alleged theft, he was wearing a black New York Yankees baseball hat and a blue zip-up coat with black sleeves and grey stripes near the wrists, over top of a black “Jeff Foxworthy” shirt with white writing on it.

VicPD are still investigating the incidents, and anyone with information, or anyone who recognizes the suspect is asked to call the VicPD at 250-995-7654.

To report anonymously, call Greater Victoria Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
