JOHANNESBURG –Police are investigating Saturday’s robbery at a Cashbuild store in Soweto, south west of Johannesburg.

Officials say three men stole an undisclosed amount of money from the store in Meadowlands, just moments before a cash van was about to collect the cash.

The police's Lungelo Dlamini said officers are trying to locate the suspects.

“Nobody has been arrested. The suspects fled the scene on foot and we are not sure if there was a getaway car parked somewhere.”
