Police are investigating a “takeover-style robbery” that occurred at a Yaletown nightclub this April.
Vancouver Police have released security footage of a man who may have information about this armed robbery and forcible confinement at a Yaletown nightclub.
An investigation was launched on April 9, after two suspects entered the club after hours, threatened staff with a gun and knife, and stole $25,000 in cash. During the “takeover-style robbery”, staff had their hands zap-strapped and were forcibly confined.

“One victim was seriously assaulted and suffered a life-altering injury.”
A number of suspects have been identified by police, but investigators are seeking additional evidence before charges can be recommended to Crown counsel.
“We believe this man was present at the nightclub at the time of the offence and could have important information that could assist us in completing the investigation,” says Constable Tania Visintin. “We want to speak with this man to find out what he knows.”
