When the cashier told the man she doesn’t have the keys to the tills, another gunman cocked his firearm threateningly.
The gunmen emptied the tills while the other robbers took liquor.
Just over R7 000 in cash was stolen.
The value of the liquor was not disclosed.
A case of business robbery is under investigation.
