    RCMP say the 39-year-old Surrey resident has been identified and arrested.
     
    Police asked for public help identifying the man following the heist at a financial institution near the Guildford Town Centre on Dec. 29.
     
    The man was wearing a patterned dress, white wool sweater, a long blond, curly wig and a pink toque that partially obscured his face.
