Spider-Man Burglar Steals $65K in Leduc

0:00Mounties and Ladou are hunting a burglar, who pulled off a wild-heist, dressed as Spider-Man, hitting a cigar shop south of Edmonton. This happened early on March 23rd, around 2.25 a.m. at the corner of 51st Street in 50th Avenue. The thief made off with cash and high-end merchandise worth about $65,000. The crook got creative, dropping in through the ceiling from a vacant business next door. Before slipping inside, they snipped the lines to the security cameras, leaving no footage behind. They grabbed the loot and bounced out the back door like it was a comic book escape. The shop's owner, who just took over in mid-February, is reeling from the hit. It's a tough blow for a new business already grinding to build up. Folks in the area are buzzing about the bold move, wondering if this masked marauder will strike again nearby. Police describe the suspect in a full Spider-Man mask, topped off with a bright yellow jacket and matching yellow gloves. No arrest yet, but they're piecing together leads from the scene.
