Johannesburg Central Police arrested a 22-year-old suspect for business robbery on the
corner of Plein and Rissik Street on June 18, 2014 at 4pm.
It is alleged that three suspects robbed the Vula Zonge shop corner Bree and Loveday
Street. They pretended to be customers; one of them pulled out firearm and instructed
every person to lie down. His accomplices took an undisclosed amount of money from
the till before they fled the scene.
One of the customers followed the suspects without them noticing until he saw a police
vehicle and alerted them. One suspect was apprehended and two are still at large with
money and a firearm. Investigations are continuing and suspect will appear soon in the
Johannesburg Magistrates’ Court.
