-attempted armed bank robbery in Saanich.

Six cops were shot and two suspects are dead.


According to a Saanich Police tweet, they “have not uncovered further indication of a potential 3rd suspect.”

-from the article:

Our response is being augmented and supported by resources from the BC RCMP and our local police partners at VicPD, Central Saanich Police, Oak Bay Police, and Westshore RCMP,” said Saanich Police Chief Constable Dean Duthie.

Police say say gunfire was exchanged after they were called to the bank around 11 a.m. for reports two armed suspects entered the building near Pear and Shelbourne streets.

Investigators say the suspects were “heavily armed,” with body armour reported.

A vehicle found in the area associated with the suspects was found with a potential explosive device inside, police say.

The officers hurt are all members of the Greater Victoria Emergency Response Team — three Saanich Police and three Victoria Police officers.

Their injuries vary in severity, with some undergoing surgery.
