Two suspects were killed and six police officers were injured in a shootout at a Saanich bank Tuesday, an incident the district’s police chief said was unlike anything he’s seen in his 27-year career.
Saanich and Victoria police officers and member
Saw this on the news earlier. Very scary situation and amazing that no innocent bystanders were injured in the exchange of gun fire. Hopefully the injured officers will be ok.
The suspects were 22-year-old twin brothers Mathew and Isaac Auchterlonie, the BC RCMP's Vancouver Island Integrated Major Crime Unit confirmed at a news conference Saturday morning.
The twins are from Duncan, B.C., and their family is cooperating with the investigation and has asked for privacy, said BC RCMP spokesperson Cpl. Alex B�rub�.
Neither man had a criminal record and were not previously known to police, he added.
Don�t people realize it�s not profitable to rob a bank these days?
Wild stuff. Hope the cops pull through.

These guys were far from expert bank robbers. Now they're dead bank robbers. At least nobody else got killed... hoping the police are OK.
