HAVELOCK (CP) -- Police searched the bush country 25 miles north of here today, seek- ing to trap four bandits who robbed a Havelock bank of more than $185,000 in cash and secur- ities. Sixty provincial and commun- ity policemen in nearly 20 cruis- ers were being used to block every possible escape route from dense, damp bush at Coe Lake. Shotguns were issued to the officers and residents at farms and cottages in the sparsely opulated area were warned to lock their doors and report all strangers. Police said they believe at least three of the bandits were from the holdup-plagued Mont- real area. Two of them were described as French-speaking. The robhers abandoned two stolen luxury cars, wrecked or badly damaged, in their flight after the Thursday holdup, and a provincial police car was wrecked chasing them.
