CALGARY – Police have charged an employee at a downtown bank in connection with a brazen robbery there last month.
Armed robbers targeted the Bank of Montreal in the 2300 block of 4th Street S.W. around 5 p.m. on Wednesday, November 26th.
Three suspects fled the scene, but were later tracked down and arrested by police.
Investigators say bank staff had been locked within a room inside the bank during the robbery, and none were held as hostages.
On Monday, police announced 20-year-old Kenza Belakziz had been charged with conspiracy to commit robbery with a firearm and six counts of robbery using a firearm.
At the time, Belakziz was employed by the BMO location that was robbed.
She is expected to appear in court on Tuesday, December 23rd.
Police previously laid charges against 21-year-old Lucas Wayne Windsor, 21-year-old Saleem Obaid Nasery and 23-year-old Matthew Alexis Valdes.
They are charged with seven counts of forcible confinement and robbery using a firearm, in addition to one count each of possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose and disguise with intent to commit an indictable offence.
