Cash-in-transit heist fails

WARNING: This is Version 1 of my old archive, so Photos will NOT work and many links will NOT work. But you can find articles by searching on the Titles. There is a lot of information in this archive. Use the SEARCH BAR at the top right. Prior to December 2012; I was a pro-Christian type of Conservative. I was unaware of the mass of Jewish lies in history, especially the lies regarding WW2 and Hitler. So in here you will find pro-Jewish and pro-Israel material. I was definitely WRONG about the Boeremag and Janusz Walus. They were for real.

A gang of seven men attempting to rob a cash-in-transit van were foiled when the van automatically locked itself in Perseverance near Motherwell on Thursday, Eastern Cape police said.

Inspector Dumile Gwavu said a green Ford Courier collided with the cash-in-transit van at the intersection of Kuler and Perseverance roads in Perseverance at 10am on Thursday.

A white Ford Bantam also stopped and seven men climbed out of the two cars. All the men were armed with pistols and two also had assault rifles.

The seven men forced the two security guards out of the van. The van then locked itself and the gang was unable to get to the money.

The men fired shots randomly and hit two passing cars before fleeing. No one was injured during the shooting. Two cars were damaged.

The security guards sustained minor injuries in the collision.

A bag, a hand bag, a cellular phone, bullets, a pistol and a pair of short trousers were found on the scene.

The Ford Bantam was later recovered at Shaka street in Veeplaas.

A case of armed robbery was being investigated. No arrests had been made.

Anyone who has information regarding the attempted heist should contact Inspector Mandla at 084-627-1339, said Gwavu. – Sapa
