Toronto police are searching for a man who allegedly stole a person’s wallet and another’s bank cards and made withdrawals from their bank account.
The first incident happened on Nov. 29, 2025 when the victim attended a financial institution in central Etobicoke, near The East Mall and Burnhamthorpe Road.
Investigators say a man walked closely to a male and stole their wallet from his pocket.

Police say the same suspect approached another person in a parking lot near Dundas Street West and Burnhamthorpe Road and told them that there was a problem with their car.
Once out of their vehicle, the suspect removed the victim’s bank cards from the car. He then allegedly attended a financial institution in the area and made withdrawals from the victim’s bank account.
The suspect is described as a male, 50 to 70 years-old, and five-foot-nine to five-foot-10 with a white beard. He was last seen a dark jacket and sunglasses.
