“The courier vehicle managed to speed off to a safe destination while the security guards were shot at until their vehicle came to a complete halt. The suspects then took the security guards’ firearms and fled the scene.
“The wounded guards were rushed to a nearby hospital with multiple injuries. They are reportedly in a critical but stable condition,” van Staad said.
The police are investigating a case of armed robbery and attempted murder.
