2 suspects arrested, 4 more wanted in connection with robbery at mall in Burlington
Police in Halton Region have charged two suspects and are looking for four others after a Nike store in a mall in Burlington was robbed earlier this month.
Halton Regional Police said a group of male suspects attended Mapleview Shopping Centre on Fairview Street on the evening of May 2, walked into the Nike store and allegedly stole clothing items.
When they ran away, mall security chased the suspects and caught up with them in the parking lot, police said.
During the confrontation, one suspect allegedly deployed a bear spray on a mall security employee, allowing the group to get into a vehicle and drive away.
The employee was taken to the hospital with minor injuries, police said.
Investigators later determined that the vehicle used was stolen out of Hamilton and identified two of the six suspects.
In a news release on Wednesday, police said 19-year-old Tyson Larsh and a 17-year-old boy were arrested in Hamilton earlier this week. Both have been charged with robbery.
Meanwhile, police do not have descriptions of the other four suspects. They are asking anyone with information to contact them at 905-825-4777 ext. 2316 or Crime Stoppers anonymously.

RCMP launch secondary search in Battlefords for Ashley Morin
WATCH: RCMP will be searching waterways in the Battlefords area for clues into the 2018 disappearances of Sask. woman. The Saskatchewan RCMP says it has concluded an initial river search for signs of Ashley Morin, but found no evidence yet to indicate what happened to the missing woman. In an update sent Friday afternoon, a spokesperson with the RCMP said investigators have launched a secondary search in a remote area of the Battlefords river system. Morin was 31 years old when she was last seen in July of 2018 in North Battleford. Police believe she was the victim of a homicide. On June 16, RCMP announced that they will continue the investigation by conducting searches of rivers and riverbanks in the area throughout the week. 'The initial river search concluded yesterday afternoon. Today, investigators are conducting a secondary search in a remote area of the Battlefords river system; that search is expected to conclude tomorrow,' RCMP said in a statement Friday. RCMP say the historic case unit continues to investigate tips regarding Morin's disappearance. Anyone with information is asked to contact police.
