Police: Canada suspect carried $330K in cash

EDMONTON, Alberta – The man wanted in an armored car heist at a Canadian university that left three armed guards dead was carrying $330,000 in cash and no passport when he was arrested by U.S. border officials, police said Sunday.

Travis Baumgartner was stopped Saturday near a border crossing in Lynden, Wash., southwest of Abbotsford, British Columbia.

He was driving a Ford F-150 truck with the Alberta license plate police had been seeking, said Police Supt. Bob Hassel at a news conference. Hassel added the suspect tried to get through the border with his driver’s license. He had the cash in a backpack.
