The accused was charged with robbery and related offences following an armed robbery of a marijuana dispensary by four masked men.
The Crown's case on identity was circumstantial, relying on video surveillance, witness descriptions, the evidence of the getaway driver, and clothing seized from the accused's home.
The court found the getaway driver's evidence unreliable and noted significant differences between the clothing seized and the clothing worn by the perpetrator in the video.
The court concluded the Crown failed to prove identity beyond a reasonable doubt and acquitted the accused.
