ICYMI: Police describe car with 'multiple' explosives involved in B.C. bank shooting
Cpl. Alex Berube said Thursday that multiple explosive devices were placed inside a white 1992 four-door Toyota Camry with two black racing stripes over the hood and roof.The RCMP explosive disposal unit dealt with a highly volatile and dangerous situation, and a number of firearms were found at the site, Berube said.
He told a joint news conference with the Saanich Police Department that the coroners service is trying to identify the two male suspects who were killed outside a Bank of Montreal. “Once that is completed, our first priority will be to speak with the next of kin and then we’ll be going forward on determining more about them. I mean their backgrounds, who they are, their history, and how that may relate to what took place.”
Saanich Chief Const. Dean Duthie said police happened to be nearby when the armed suspects left the bank.Officers who provided emergency first aid to their critically injured colleagues before an ambulance arrived likely helped save their lives, he said.Share this article in your social network
