Police seek 40-something woman suspected of robbing Burnaby bank

Suspect in February incident caught on SkyTrain surveillance video

Police are looking for help identifying a woman suspected of robbing a Burnaby bank in February.

On February 11, officers were called to the intersection of Kingsway and Nelson Avenue for a report of a robbery in progress at a bank, according to the Burnaby RCMP.

A woman had walked into the bank, demanded money from a teller and left with an undisclosed amount of cash, media spokesperson Cpl. Mike Kalanj told the NOW.

The suspect was gone by the time police arrived, he said, but she was captured on SkyTrain surveillance video.

Burnaby RCMP released the video this week in the hopes someone will recognize her.

The suspect was described to police as a five-foot-three white woman in her 40s with a medium build. 

She was wearing a grey toque, sunglasses on top of the touque, a grey long-sleeved sweater, a grey scarf and blue jeans.

“Our robbery section continues to investigate this incident and would like your help in identifying this individual,” Kalanj said in the release.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Burnaby RCMP at 604-646-9999.
