Edmonton police are looking to identify two women who are believed to be connected to a break-in and an arson at a restaurant during the summer.

EPS says around 4:30 p.m. on Aug. 20, two women allegedly broke into a restaurant near 124 Street and 167 Avenue.

One of the suspects allegedly used an axe to smash the front entrance glass to gain access, and when the suspects were inside the restaurant, one of the suspects allegedly brought a jerry can, which was then ignited.

The pair were captured on security cameras. The first woman has been described as wearing a camouflage hoodie, black leggings, and white high-top runners. She was last seen riding a BMX bicycle away from the scene.
