The man left the bank with an undisclosed amount of cash, but police were able to track him down in a short amount of time.

Two people were taken into custody in relation to this incident; the man is being held in custody for court.

A similar incident happened in February that left customers very confused about the bank’s temporary closure, as seen in the video below.

Police ask anyone with information about Tuesday’s incident to call their non-emergency line at 250 995-7654. To report anonymously you can call the Greater Victoria Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
