“At about 12.36pm, six armed men entered the store and pretended to be customers. They drew their firearms and ordered everyone down, including customers, indicating that it was a robbery,” said Maluleke.
Following the robbery, the acting station commander pointed out that the suspects fled the scene in a silver BMW 3 Series, the ‘dolphin’ shape, with an unknown Mpumalanga registration.
The store has since been closed and cordoned off.
A case of business robbery has been opened with the police.
