Two men face a total of 26 charges after RCMP used a helicopter to arrest suspects after an Alberta Treasury Branch was smashed and robbed early Wednesday morning in Daysland, Alta.

Officers at the nearby Killam-Forestburg detachment were called about the break-in at 4:13 a.m.

When a police officer arrived, the robbers had already fled the scene with an ATM in the back of a pickup, leaving the front of the bank destroyed.

Officers were able to identify two suspects and arrest them near

Bashaw, Alta., with the help of a helicopter.
