G4S to probe triple fatality robbery to improve safety

The private security company at the centre of last week's deadly armoured-car heist in Edmonton, Canada, is conducting an internal investigation and will, if necessary, rewrite its policies or procedures to improve safety, its head said recently.

At a joint news conference with police, Jean Tallion, president and chief executive officer of G4S Cash Solutions Canada, told reporters that while the company's focus remains on the recovery of the critically wounded security guard, as well as the families of the three killed in the melee at the University of Alberta, it's also in the midst of its own probe into "many matters" related to the robbery allegedly carried out by one of its own employees.
