'This remains an ongoing police incident with the heavy police presence in the area,' said Saanich police chief Dean Duthie at a press conference.

MONTREAL - Two suspected bank robbers were killed on Tuesday during a shootout with police in western Canada that left six officers injured, local authorities said, adding that a possible third suspect was still missing.

Around 11:00 am , two armed suspects entered a bank in Saanich, a city of approximately 114,000 outside the British Columbia capital of Victoria, police said in a statement. "It's hard because we have members in the hospital right now suffering from serious injuries," Duthie said.
