House robbers attacked a resident in his flat in Radium Street next to the Carletonville Pick n Pay centre this week.

This incident took place on November 21.

The resident was in his home when he heard a knock on the door at approximately 20:00. He went to open the door and found an unknown African man outside his door.

“May I borrow your jack?” the man asked.

Seconds later the thug pushed him into his flat and two accomplices also appeared. One of them pointed a firearm at the resident, after which the thugs tied him up.

They then searched his flat and took a sound bar, two cellphones and money as well as the keys of the resident’s Toyota Corolla. They loaded the valuables into to Corolla and drove away with the car.

The police in Carletonville are now investigating a house robbery case.
