Accused bank robber gets bail in Alberta, but also faces charges in Saskatchewan
MEDICINE HAT, Alta. — A former Winnipeg television news director accused of robbing banks in Alberta has been granted bail.
But Stephen Vogelsang remains in custody in Medicine Hat, Alta., because he faces the same charges in Saskatchewan.
Vogelsang, who is 54, is charged with robbing two banks in Medicine Hat, three in Regina and one in Saskatoon.
Judge Darwin Greaves of Medicine Hat provincial court agreed Wednesday to let Vogelsang return to Winnipeg to arrange his affairs, then he must turn himself in for a psychiatric assessment to determine if he can be held criminally responsible.
