Police looking for suspect
The Jeppe SAPS is looking a man in connection with a robbery that took place on December 14, 2012.
Warrant Officer Richard Munyai, the Jeppe SAPS communications officer, said a man was apparently behind the counter at his business in Jeppestown when three men entered.
“The men pretended to be customers and when the owner tried to help them, they drew their firearms. One of the men pointed his firearm at the business owner and the other two pointed their firearms at a customer and employee.
“The suspects demanded money and one of them hit the customer with his firearm,” said W/O Munyai. The criminals ordered the business owner to take them to the safe.
“He took them to the safe and found three more suspects in possession of firearms. One of the suspects hit him with a firearm on the head and removed his jewellery. They took his cellular phone and the safe containing cash,” said W/O Munyai.
Anyone who knows the whereabouts of the suspects can contact the investigating officer, Detective Constable Vincent Mothiba, on 082 316 5523.
