Ottawa police seek exam answers following alleged paper pilfering

May 8, 2020 | 11:49 AM

Ottawa police want the public’s help with some vexing exam questions.

The police service’s criminal investigations unit is asking for assistance identifying two men who are allegedly responsible for separate thefts of examination papers from Carleton University in January.

Police say in each instance a man walked into a hall where tests were being administered, took exam papers without registering and quickly left.

The suspect in a Jan. 17 theft is a black male, 20 to 25 years old, 5 feet 10 inches with a slim build, wearing dark grey pants, a black puffy winter jacket with a hood and black footwear with a small, fluorescent white tab at the front.

The suspect in a theft two days later is a Caucasian male, 20 to 25 years old, five feet 10 inches to six feet, medium build, with dark hair and a moustache, wearing black pants with white stripes behind the calf area, a dark blue jacket with a hood and white running shoes.
