Authorities are investigating a cash-in-transit robbery and attempted murder following an armed attack on a cash delivery truck in the industrial park area of Aberdare Drive on Monday.
According to KZN SAPS spokesperson Robert Netshiunda, the security guards were ambushed shortly after collecting cash from a client. "The armed suspects opened fire on the cash delivery truck, injuring one guard, who was subsequently taken to the hospital," Netshiunda reported.
The assailants made off with an undisclosed amount of cash and fled the scene in a getaway vehicle. Police are actively searching for the suspects and urging anyone with information to come forward.
