Desperate Duo on the Run After Mount Pearl Heist: Authorities Seek Public Help!

In a dramatic turn of events, the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary (RNC) is actively searching for two notorious criminals involved in a brazen robbery that took place in Mount Pearl early yesterday morning.

The police believe that 28-year-old Peter Campbell and 44-year-old Shane Ryan, both residents of St. John’s, stormed a business on Commonwealth Avenue shortly before 7 a.m. on Wednesday. After executing the heist, the pair made a swift getaway in a vehicle just moments before law enforcement arrived at the scene.

Both suspects now face serious charges, including robbery and possession of property obtained by crime, in addition to multiple breaches of court orders pertaining to their release and probation. This is not their first run-in with the law; Campbell has a lengthy criminal history, which includes almost two dozen violations of court orders, as well as charges for assault, robbery, and theft.

The authorities are urging community members to stay vigilant. If you spot either Campbell or Ryan, you are advised to contact the RNC immediately by dialing 911. Given their history, it is crucial to approach with caution. As these two repeat offenders remain at large, their capture is a high priority for law enforcement agencies in the area.

Stay tuned for updates as the RNC intensifies their search efforts!
