Four sought for frightening Vaughan bank heist

The hunt is on for four bandits after an armed bank robbery in Vaughan.

York Regional Police say the frightening heist occurred at a bank on Major Mackenzie Dr. W., just west of Hwy. 400, shortly after 1 p.m. on Tuesday.

And investigators from the Holdup Unit are now hoping the public can help identify the crooks.

“Three to four (men) armed with guns entered the bank wearing black hoodies and ordered everyone down onto the ground,” Const. Laura Nicolle said Thursday.

The crooks obtained an undisclosed amount of cash and fled the bank.

“No one was physically injured during the incident,” Nicolle said. “The investigation is ongoing.”

No images or descriptions of the suspects have been released.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Holdup Unit at 1-866-876-5423, ext. 6631, or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
