The Guelph Police Service is hoping the public can help them track down three people who robbed a west-end store on Friday.

The males entered the business on Silvercreek Parkway North just before 5 p.m., then locked the door behind them, went behind the counter and stole several phones and cash from the register.

One of the suspects was allegedly carrying a hammer.

All three were last seen getting into a black car, believed to be a Honda Civic, with tinted windows.

The first suspect was described as a Black male wearing a black sweater with a hood, black shoes, blue gloves and a black medical mask.

The second suspect, carrying the hammer, was described as a Black male and wearing dark grey pants, black and red gloves, black shoes with white soles and a white medical mask.

The third suspect was also a Black male. He was wearing a light grey sweater, black pants, black shoes, black and yellow gloves and a balaclava.

Tips can be called in to Guelph Police or Crime Stoppers.

There was only one employee in the store at the time of the robbery. They were not hurt.
