“When he went to the passenger’s seat to collect the parcel, he felt someone touching him. He turned and saw two men, one was armed.
“They demanded the car keys,” explained Capt Johannes Ramphora, communications officer at Springs SAPS.
The victim ran from the scene and threw away the keys to the vehicle, an Isuzu bakkie.
“They took his cellphone worth R1 600 and drove off in the vehicle,” added Ramphora.
The bakkie was later found abandoned along GilGil Street in Pollak Park.
