Police are investigating after nearly $15,000 worth of tools were stolen during a commercial break and enter.

Just after 8 a.m. Saturday, Guelph police were called to a business near Speedvale Avenue West and Dawson Road after staff arrived to find a front window smashed. Surveillance video showed three males arriving in a white van just before 6 a.m. After one used a tool to smash the window, all three entered the business and left with a large quantity of Milwaukee-brand power tools.

The first male was wearing a brown or beige jacket, black pants, a black hat and gloves. The second wore a blue puffy jacket, jeans, white shoes, gloves and a hat. The third wore all black clothing and gloves. They were driving a white 2016 Chevrolet Express van which had previously been reported stolen.
