Waterloo Regional police are asking for the public's help to identify a man wanted in connection with a theft at a drug store in Cambridge.

Police have released security camera images in connection with the incident at the Shoppers Drug Mart on Holiday Inn Drive around 1:30 p.m. on Friday.

The man allegedly "entered a closed off portion of the store and left with a number of perfume and cologne bottles placed into a backpack," according to a press release.

He then left the store by getting into the passenger side of a tan-coloured van.

The suspect is described as a white male, 5'9", with a thin build and short dark brown hair. He was wearing a white mesh-back Reebok baseball cap, blue jeans, black shoes and a black windbreaker-style jacket.
