Police say the suspect being sought in a deadly armoured car robbery in Edmonton made off with a significant amount of money in the heist, but they won't say how much.

Travis Baumgartner is wanted on three counts of first-degree murder and one count of attempted murder.

Police allege the 21-year-old was part of a crew of five guards re-loading an ATM machine at the University of Alberta early Friday morning.

Four of the guards where shot and three died.

Edmonton police Supt. Bob Hassel says investigators are looking all over for Baumgartner, even in other countries.

He is asking people in rural areas to report any unusual signs of traffic on their properties so that police can check them out.
