The guards were also forced to help cut cables and carry goods out of the warehouse.
“After the robbery, the two guards were tied up and left unharmed,” added Ramphora.
The stolen goods included three generators, DVD screens, speakers, batteries, and alternators.
The estimated value is reported to be more than R1-million.
