Six suspected CIT robbers arrested in Vanderbijlpark
Police in Gauteng arrested six suspects in connection with a cash-in-transit robbery in Vanderbijlpark on Sunday.
According to police, the cash van was loading money at an ATM when the armed suspects attacked the security guards, robbing them of a rifle and a pistol.
They then fled the scene with an undisclosed amount of cash.
Gauteng police spokesperson Dimakatso Nevhuhuli says the suspects were arrested on the same day at a house in Evaton.
“Six suspects were arrested and two of the vehicles, which were allegedly used in the commission of crime, were also found in the yard and seized. The team further seized three pistols, one rifle, five cell phones and money.
“All six suspects are expected to appear before Vanderbijlpark Magistrate’s Court on a charge of armed robbery, possession of unlicensed firearm and ammunition.”
