The first suspect is described as a white man, between 16-20, 120-150 pounds, with short light hair. He was wearing a grey hoodie, cargo shorts and light coloured sneakers. He rode a newer mountain bike.

The second suspect is also a young white man, between 15-20, 120-150 pounds. He had short brown cropped hair and wore jean shorts and a purple or burgundy hoodie with a possible logo and a fresh egg stain on the back. He was also riding a newer mountain bike.

The suspects were last seen biking east on Bold street from Bay.
