Tqon injured in cash-in-transit heist

Two men were injured in a cash van heist in Rondebosch in Cape Town this afternoon. Two Coin Security guards were collecting cash from a foodstore, when four armed men confronted them. Police spokesperson Billy Jones says the robbers fired several shots at the guards, and made off with a bag containing an undisclosed amount of cash. One of the guards was injured in the foot, while a bystander sustained a gunshot wound to his arm. Jones says the getaway vehicle used by the robbers was later found abandoned nearby.
