Abbotsford Man Could Be Responsible For 11 Bank Robberies In Langley And Surrey: Police

The Canadian Press, 16 Jun, 2015 10:25 AM
    ABBOTSFORD, B.C. — Clothing, firearms and replica weapons seized at two homes in Abbotsford, B.C., have led to the arrest of a man suspected in four bank robberies.
     
    Police say 28-year-old Briaden Rosch is accused of committing the heists in neighbouring Langley starting in April.
     
    But police also say Rosch is a suspect in 11 robberies in the Vancouver area, and those investigations are ongoing.
     
    The department says police from three jurisdictions, including Surrey, identified Rosch as a suspect last week.
     
    Surveillance led to his arrest on Friday.
     
    Police say more charges are anticipated against the serial robbery suspect.
