A man suspected by police of holding up an Ottawa bank with a gun earlier this week has been found dead in the central Vancouver Island city of Nanaimo.
The RCMP say they were informed by Ottawa police that the suspect, 22-year-old Peter Hoelke, fled to Vancouver Island after Tuesday’s robbery of a CIBC branch on Richmond Road.
An RCMP emergency response team surrounded a house in Nanaimo Friday morning, but when officers entered the premises in the afternoon the residence was found to be empty.
RCMP Const. Gary O’Brien says in a news release that a body was found in central Nanaimo Friday evening and that the B.C. Coroners Service has confirmed it to be Hoelke.
The release says police do not suspect foul play in the death.
On Saturday, Ottawa police confirmed that Hoelke was a suspect in the robbery of a CIBC branch in Britannia Heights on Tuesday.
According to Ottawa police, a man armed with a handgun entered the bank at about 12:40 p.m. and demanded cash before fleeing on foot, possibly toward a green pick-up truck parked in an adjacent residential area.
Police said as the suspect was leaving the bank an anti-theft device known as a “dye-pack” was seen by witnesses to explode. Police said red dye may have gotten on the man or his clothing.
No one was injured in the robbery.
