I would like to talk about a robbery that occurred sometime after 6pm on August 6 in Steeledale.
My brother was on his way home from Pick n Pay in Steeldale, as he passed the factories, two men jumped out of the bushes shoved him on the ground and put a gun to his head. They grabbed whatever they could find in his pockets which consisted of R70 and his cellphone. They also grabbed the two loaves of bread he had just bought.
The one gentleman had a red cap with a circle logo on the front, a red shirt, blue jeans and white takkies on at the time of the attack. If anyone has any information, it would be very helpful.
I am disgusted to say that even though cars drove past and the security guards were still on duty no one bothered to assist.
The cellphone is not fancy or expensive, it a Chinese brand called Injoo, the screen is really busted and there is no actual working battery for the phone. If anyone gets this phone please could they kindly inform us as a lot of family history is linked to that phone.
Any assistance in this regard would be helpful.
