WATCH: Attempted robbery on G4S truck

Another attempt on a G4S money truck in Burgersfort on 24 July 2017.

BURGERSFORT – A group of men stormed a G4S truck while workers were loading money at Excel garage Lion Valley. Workers of G4S took quick action, throwing the remaining money bag in the truck and closed the door.

On camera footage, three men are seen approaching the truck and pulling on its door. When the driver realized something was wrong, he took off. One G4S security guard remained behind and was bombarded by two other male assailants.

They took his gun and pursued the truck. No one was hurt in the incident but the robbers got away with a firearm.
