Waterloo Regional Police are continuing to investigate a robbery after a collision in Cambridge.

On November 29, 2024, at approximately 7:30 p.m., police responded to the area of Fountain Street North and Cherry Blossom Road for a report of a robbery.

Two male victims reported they were driving home from work, heading west on Fountain Street North, when their vehicle, a Toyota Rav 4, was rear-ended by a pickup truck. The Toyota driver pulled over and exited the car to exchange information with the driver of the truck. While engaged in conversation, the truck driver brandished a firearm toward the two victims and, with the truck passenger, stole property. The suspects then fled the area in the pickup truck.

The victims flagged down a passing vehicle and borrowed the driver’s phone to contact police.

No physical injuries were reported as a result of this incident.

The two suspects are described as South Asian males, approximately 6’ tall, wearing black toques and dark clothing.

The investigation is ongoing by WRPS’ Robbery Team.

Anyone with information or video footage of this incident is asked to contact police at 519-570-9777, extension 8255.
