Burnaby RCMP is seeking public assistance in identifying three suspects involved in a package theft that occurred on December 1, 2025.

Just before noon on Monday, December 1, 2025, three suspects in a dark SUV pulled up to a residence in South Burnaby.

A male suspect exited the SUV, walked to the back of the vehicle and opened the hatch. He then returned to the driver’s seat.

A female suspect exited the rear passenger side of the SUV, made her way to the porch of the residence, grabbed a large package, returned to the vehicle and placed the package in the rear of the SUV. A second female suspect exited the front passenger side of the SUV, scurried to the front door and grabbed a package that she later placed in the rear of the SUV.

“These suspects are definitely on Santa’s Naughty List,” said Cpl. Mike Kalanj with the Burnaby RCMP. “There are numerous victims of this type of crime all over the Lower Mainland and province, especially this time of year. You can help these victims by sharing the attached images and video. We would really like to identify these suspects.”

The suspects are described as follows:

Male suspect:

• Black jacket with a large logo on the back
• Blue jeans
• Brown and beige baseball cap
• Dark sunglasses
• White running shoes

Female suspect 1:

• Dark hair
• Black hooded jacket
• Black shirt with a colourful design on the front
• Blue jeans
• Black boots

Female suspect 2:

• Very distinct bright pink hair
• Black jacket with white sleeves
• Black hood
• Dark crop top
• Black pants
• Beige and white footwear

“A good way to get your name on Santa’s Nice List, or at least off the Naughty List, would be to turn yourself in before our investigators catch up with you.” Cpl. Kalanj added, speaking directly to the suspects.

Police are asking anyone that can identify any of these suspects, to please contact Burnaby RCMP at 604-646-9999 and quote file 2025-41885. Those wishing to remain anonymous may contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
