ACT Policing is investigating the theft of two watches from a jewellery store located in the Canberra Centre, Civic, yesterday (October 16).

Around 2.10 pm, a man entered the jewellery store where he requested to be shown the watches by a shop assistant. Shortly after he grabbed the watches and ran off.

The offender is described as of Asian appearance in his mid-30’s, slim build and approximately 168cm-173cm (5’6”-5’8”). He was wearing blue pants, a tweed style jacket, white hat and sunglasses.

Reports suggest he may be responsible for a similar type of theft from the Westfield Woden a week ago.
