Two men have been arrested and face 35 charges,
after Tofield and Redwater RCMP in conjunction with
the Edmonton General Investigative Section (GIS)
North, have completed a lengthy investigation into
two separate bank robberies including the ATB in
Holden in 2016.
At approximately 3:30
pm on May 2, 2016 two
masked men entered the
Holden ATB pulling what
appeared to be a gun and
demanded cash.
The
Holden ATB is in the same
building as KC & Co. Insurance
Agency.
The
males fled the area with an
undisclosed amount of
money in a stolen SUV
which was later recovered.
The other robbery was an ATB in Redwater.
Charged are: Kevin Loughran, 27, of Drayton Valley
(seven robbery-related charges); and Jason Gallie, 39,
(28 charges including robbery with a firearm, arson,
disguise with intent, pointing a firearm, and possession
of property over $5,000).
