‘Mams robbers’ still at large
The police are looking for these three dangerous men in connection with separate robberies.
The Mamelodi East police are still looking for these three men for robberies.
The three are wanted in connection with three separate armed robberies in Mamelodi East.
The men were believed to be between 20 and 35 years old, said spokesperson Captain Michael Mbewe.
On 3 July, one of the men held up a delivery truck driver and his assistant before robbing them of an undisclosed amount of money.
Mbewe said the man, believed to be aged between 25 and 35 years old, locked his victims in the back of the truck before fleeing.
On the same day, a man believed to be in his early 20s, armed with a gun, held up another man outside a BP petrol station in Mamelodi East and demanded his cellphone and money.
Mbewe said on 19 July, another of the men “together with his four accomplices robbed a furniture shop in Mamelodi East”.
They forced staff into an office, robbed them of their cellphones and also stole furniture before fleeing the scene.
Mbewe warned residents against trying to apprehend these men if they spotted them, asking them to rather notify the police.
“The men may be armed and dangerous,” said Mbewe.
