“We condemn the act of looting by community members. It is a crime. Anyone found in possession of the stolen cash might also face criminal charges,” according to a statement by National Police spokesperson, Colonel Brenda Muridili.
At about 7am, robbers in three vehicles attacked a G4S cash van. One of the vehicles rammed the van, followed by an explosion that gave the thugs access to the cash.The robbers fled the scene with an undisclosed amount of money and a Mercedes-Benz was engulfed in flames.
