AN armed gang held up a gardener before ransacking a Somerset Park house on Tuesday afternoon. The incident occurred at about 5pm on Shepton Close.

While reports are still sketchy, according to Blue Security, four armed men stormed the house and held up the gardener. They then ransacked the house before taking various items along with the homeowners car.

No arrests have yet been made. The armed robbery comes just a day after an uMhlanga restaurant was robbed of R37 000 by three men, one of whom was armed.
