Montreal — The two men circle the front of the white SUV, working at the driver's side lock, repeatedly looking over their shoulders and apparently nervous about getting spotted.

They were wearing hooded sweatshirts and masks, but with the masks pulled down, it's possible to see that one has a dark mustache and to get a relatively good look at their faces.
