Future Shop in Nanaimo is missing more than $10,000 worth of inventory following a break-in Monday.
Witnesses called the Mounties about 2 a.m. saying two men were seen banging on the front window of the store in Country Club Centre.
The men were seen a short time later coming out of the store. One man was carrying an armload of merchandise, a duffle bag and a tire iron allegedly used to break into the building.
They got into an older model red 1990s hatchback car and drove away toward Norwell Drive.
"They ended up taking about $10,000 worth of stuff," said Const. Gary O'Brien, Nanaimo RCMP spokesman. "They had 15 iPads and a number of pay-as-you-go cellphones."
Police are looking for two Caucasian men.
The first suspect is 5'10" to 6' tall, medium build and wearing a black hoodie, white shirt, grey pants, white shoes, black gloves and was carrying a dark duffle bag.
The second suspect is also 5'10" to 6' tall and was wearing a grey hoodie, black shorts, white socks, white shoes, black gloves and was carrying a tire iron.
O'Brien said investigators are reviewing security video and checking with other detachments on the Island to find out if there were recent similar incidents.
