Hi Abhijit and Shilpa,
It is nice to read your blog..it really is a very nice effort ....
read about the robbery at Parkhis.....
Well since this is related to robbery..I have a news too..as you know I am working with RBC Shawnessy.
The shawnessy branch of RBC was also robbed on Tuesday 2nd Sept..I was sitting next to the person robbed.. watching everything..the robber who had a loaded gun demanded $30,000.00 cash,was there for about 5-7 min..but was caught as soon as he walked out of the branch...as the manager handled the situation very tactfully we were able to call 911 on time..the police was waiting for him as he walked out of the branch...there was a chance that if he sees the police he could come back to the branch and goes on the shooting spree...but we were lucky he didn't see them...
This news was in Calgary Herald as well as in Calgary Sun along with his picture...well all the clients and employees were safe which is a priority in such types of incidents.
If you want to share this in your blog ..go ahead...
Good luck and be safe...
-Asha.
