Three men are still wanted in connection with an Ackermans store robbery that occurred two months ago.
Warrant Officer Raymond Sebonyane, the Westonaria Police spokesperson, said the incident happened at about 9.30am on Sunday, 8 April.
“It is alleged the victim was on duty when an unknown man approached her, pointed a gun at her and ordered her to open the cash register.
He took money from the cash register. The victim then saw two other unknown men pushing customers and a security guard to the kitchen,” Sebonyane said.
He added that the suspects fled the scene in a silver/ grey Volvo S40 with the security guard’s firearm and an undisclosed amount of cash.
