RNC investigating break and enter at the Avalon Mall

This morning at around 5:00 a.m. the RNC responded to a report of a break-in at the Avalon Mall on Kenmount Road in St. John’s. Upon arrival, officers observed significant damage to the exterior of the Sport Chek location.

Responding officers determined that entry to the business was gained after heavy equipment was used to damage the exterior, and a suspect vehicle left the area following the event.

The suspect vehicle is described to be a white Nissan SUV, potentially a Rogue or Murano. The vehicle was last seen travelling east on Prince Philip Drive after leaving the parking lot from Thorburn Road. The heavy equipment, a loader, was left at the scene.

The RNC is seeking any information or video footage from the area around the time of the break and enter between 4 a.m. and 5:30 a.m. Tuesday.
