A RESTAURANT owner was held up by an armed man in the undercover parking lot of Gateway Theatre of Shopping. Capt Raymond Deokaran, spokesman for the Durban North SAPS, said two men were involved in the robbery on Monday.
“The man was walking to his car at about 11.45am in the underground parking. He had just packed his laptop away when one of the suspects pointed a gun at him and told him to place his car keys on the floor and face the wall.
“The victim noticed a second suspect standing behind the armed suspect possibly keeping a lookout. The suspect then grabbed the laptop and his keys and escaped. The duo were captured on CCTV footage and we are in the process of tracking them down. Thankfully no one was injured and no shots were fired,” he said.
The suspects were reportedly wearing dark clothes and may have used a getaway vehicle.
