What caught my eye about this particular thread, are the faces of the accused men:

The Scotia Bank Robbery
by PeasnRice (excerpts from the Guardian)

Two masked men were seen in the parking lot of the bank.

"A security guard at [Scotiabank] reported that he saw people run in the parking lot. He saw two men approaching the bank, both armed, one with a shotgun and one with a handgun," Mr. Hanna said.

"He closed the door and he took refuge with some of his colleagues. Shortly after, it is reported that these men approached the door, opened fire on the glass door, shattering the door and went inside."

Mr. Hanna said a customer was shot in the foot during the shooting.

He said once inside, the men robbed the bank of an undetermined amount of cash.

However, the drama did not stop there.

"In exiting the bank it so happened that two police women who were in this area doing other police duties heard a transmission on their control and because of their training and alertness these officers immediately responded," Mr. Hanna said.

"Upon seeing these individuals one of the suspects trained his weapon on the car and he fired on the police vehicle, resulting in the officer receiving pellet injuries to the left side of her face."

Continued from above:

The acting assistant commissioner said the suspects, who were being transported by a third individual escaped the scene, but did not get very far.

"As a result of the further quick response of our officers, we were able to take down all three of the suspects. During this, two of them were shot," Mr. Hanna said.

"We now have in our possession three suspects. We also have one shotgun and two handguns. We also have a bag of money believing to be the property of Scotiabank."
