Robbers had their own idea of ‘shopping’ on Black Friday weekend

The incident is believed to have occurred on November 26, when the alleged robbers left a shop with a plastic bag containing money.

Perpetrators did not stand aside to get their hands on their own ‘bargains’ on Black Friday.

 

It is alleged that on November 26, an employee of a local business in the Central Business District assisted a customer when a man suddenly pointed at him with a firearm.

 

It is believed that the man instructed the employee to open the till and demanded the money inside.

 

The employee allegedly placed money in a plastic bag and was instructed to lie on the ground.

 

It is reported that, after a while, the employee heard customers saying the robbers had left.

 

No suspects have been identified yet.
