A man sought in a fatal armored-car robbery at the University of Alberta was arrested Saturday at a U.S. border crossing, police told Canadian media.
Edmonton police Sgt. Dave Reitzel said?Travis Baumgartner, 21, was stopped at the crossing in Lynden, Wash., the CBC reported.?The crossing is southeast of Vancouver, British Columbia.
Baumgartner had been sought since the four armored-car guards he was working with were shot at the University of Alberta?in Edmonton, Alberta, early Friday. Three of the guards were killed, one critically wounded. No students were involved, police said.??
Police said that Baumgartner was alone in a Ford F-150 pickup when he was stopped and that they found money in the truck, although they did not say how much.
Baumgartner has been charged with three counts of first-degree murder and one count of attempted murder.?He and four other guards with G4S Cash Solutions were loading money into bank machines on the campus when the shooting occurred, police said.?Michelle Shegelski , 26; Eddie Rejano, 39; and Brian Ilesic, 35, were killed, The Associated Press reported.?
Baumgartner lived with his mother and step-sister in Sherwood Park, just east of Edmonton, the AP said.
