Toronto police are asking for the public's help to identify two suspects wanted in connection with a break-and-enter at a restaurant in The Beaches neighbourhood. The incident resulted in the theft of cash and other property.
Details of the Break-In
According to authorities, the incident occurred in The Beaches area of Toronto. Two men allegedly broke into the restaurant, though the exact date and time of the crime were not specified in the initial police release. Once inside, the suspects stole an undisclosed amount of cash along with other property from the business.
Suspect Description and Police Appeal
Investigators have released images of the two individuals believed to be responsible. Toronto Police Service (TPS) stated that the men in the photographs are wanted for break-and-enter. Police are urging anyone with information about the suspects or the incident to come forward to assist with the investigation.
The release of the suspect photos is a standard procedure aimed at generating tips from the community. Police have not disclosed whether the suspects used any tools or force to gain entry, nor have they confirmed if there was any surveillance footage from neighbouring properties.
Context and Community Impact

The appeal for information was published by police on January 13, 2026. Residents of The Beaches and the broader Toronto area are encouraged to review the released images and contact Toronto police or Crime Stoppers anonymously if they recognize the individuals or have any relevant details.
