Two civilians were honoured yesterday (Tuesday) with a Certificate of Appreciation from the Officer in Charge of the Kelowna RCMP for their part in helping to apprehend a robbery suspect last summer.

Supt. Bill McKinnon presented the award to Jane Hahn and Sean Hansson Tuesday morning in a private ceremony at the Kelowna RCMP Detachment.

With their help last August, police were able to quickly track down and apprehend a bank robbery suspect minutes after the offence occurred.

The suspect had held up the Royal Bank on Cooper Road.

Police were also able to recover an imitation firearm and stolen cash.

Brian Christie Miranada is charged with Robbery, Disguise with Intent and Use Imitation Firearm in Commission of Offence.
