It looks like two suspects who stole a waste bin in Cannington, Ont., west of Peterborough, got more than they bargained for.
A green waste bin that contained asbestos was removed from a demolition site on Regional Road 12 Wednesday evening.
The asbestos was being stored in the bin until it could be safely disposed of.
Durham Regional Police are advising those responsible about the potential health dangers.
The suspects are two males, who were seen driving a heavy-duty truck.
Anyone with information is asked to contact Durham police or Crime Stoppers.
