Crystal Park SAPS acting communications officer Tryna Maritz said a white Isuzu bakkie stopped alongside the 36-year-old male on Wattle Road, at 6pm.
“One suspect jumped out and pointed a firearm at the victim and demanded money,” said Maritz.
“Cash and a cellphone was robbed, together with his groceries.”
The robbers drove off and left the victim unharmed.
Maritz said just over R800 was stolen from the pedestrian.
A case of robbery with a firearm was opened at Crystal Park Police Station and will be investigated by the Crystal Park detectives.
