Some tense moments for residents in the N.W. community of Evanston Wednesday evening.
Calgary Police have taken two people into custody after Red Deer RCMP reported a stolen vehicle involved in an armed robbery in Olds; the vehicle was later tracked to the Evanston area.
Police were asking residents to stay indoors while they searched for the two suspects who were believed to be armed.
Acting Detective Jack Russell tells 660News, they also wanted people in the area to stay indoors while they conducted their investigation.
He says, “We don’t believe that there is a third person outstanding and there is no risk to the public, but we asked the public to stay indoors because officers were still searching the area for evidence.”
No word yet on whether charges will be laid.
