IT took eight robbers a whole four hours to load two trucks full of Lion matches in Sebenza last week Saturday.
According to Const Patricia Mgijima from Sebenza SAPS, four of the robbers were armed.
The robbers allegedly tied up a 35-year-old security guard and his colleagues who were on duty before entering the premises of Quality Products on Brine Street around 9.30pm.
A pair of the robbers stayed behind to keep an eye on the security guards, while six of them entered the warehouse.
After four hours of loading the two trucks with the boxes containing the matches, the guards heard the trucks leave at around 2am.
The value of the stolen goods is unknown and the robbers are still at large.
