When the man turned to look at what was happening, he saw two suspects each armed with a gun standing next to the passengers and driver’s side of his car.
The suspect standing closest to him, pulled out his gun and ordered the man to get out of the car.
The suspect on the passenger’s side then searched the victim and took the R300 in cash the man had on him.
