Police are looking for help from the public to identify two suspects after more than $100,000 in jewelry was stolen.
On Nov. 9, at about 3 p.m., the Edmonton Police Service was called to a robbery at a jewelry store in Southgate Centre near 50 Avenue and 111 Street.
Officers said two men entered the store at the time of the incident, one pulled out a handgun and the other jumped over the counter and took off with an unknown amount of gold necklaces.

The car was last seen travelling west on Whitemud Drive after driving through several red lights, police allege.
