A man was arrested during a foiled cash-in-transit robbery at a garage in Delft, Cape Town on Monday.

Three armed men attacked security guards who were offloading cash from the van.

The robbers demanded all of the money and took two boxes filled with cash.

Police who were stationed near the garage gave chase. The robbers dropped the boxes and fled.

Police spokesperson Constable Siphokazi Mawisa says a 34-year old man was arrested, two others escaped.

He will appear at the Bellville magistrate court on Wednesday.

Mawisa said the other two suspects are still at large.
