The Timmins Police Service and Crime Stoppers are asking for the public’s help in finding two suspects responsible for an unprovoked assault early Monday morning.

The attack took place around 1:53 a.m. on a victim outside of the Circle K store on Algonquin Boulevard West at Theriault Boulevard.

"The assault appeared to have been recorded on the suspects' cellphones," police said.

Both suspects appeared to be “lighter skinned” men. The first wore a beige sweater with a small logo on the front left side and a large logo on the rear.

"This logo appears to include an orange circle (possibly imitating a sunset), a car and a structure in the background," police said.

"This suspect is also wearing black sweatpants. The pants have a grey stripe down the side that extends to the knee. At the knee on the left leg, there appears to be a white logo (possibly a ‘Zoo York logo’)."

The suspect was wearing white socks with black and red basketball style shoes that appeared to have a white ‘Air Jordan’ logo on the back.

The second suspect was wearing a white sweater with a large black logo on the back. The sweater also appeared to have a separate smaller black logo on the back of the right shoulder.

"This suspect is also wearing black sweatpants," police said.

"The sweatpants appear to have a grey and white design around the knee mimicking knee pads. The suspect also appears to be wearing a red baseball cap, worn backwards under his hood. The suspect is wearing black shoes."

The duo likely arrived at Circle K from Wilson Avenue walking eastbound.

"After the assault, the suspect returned the same way they arrived and ran westbound on Wilson Avenue."

Anyone who recognizes the clothing, can identify the suspects or comes across the cellphone video of the assault, is urged to contact Timmins Police at 705-264-1201 or Cochrane District Crime Stoppers 1-800-222-TIPS(8477).
