An armed robbery occurred early on Thursday morning as two fidelity guards were doing their usual pick ups in Gunners Circle, Epping.
"It is alleged that an unknown number of armed males confronted the two Fidelity security officials, firing gun shots at them as a result of exchange of fire," says police spokesperson, Elliot Sinyangana.
Sinyangana added that during the attack one of the suspects were injured and fell down but the others carried and loaded him at the back of a grey Opel Corsa.
The robbers are believed to have fled the scene with one cash box containing an undisclosed amount of money in the vehicle previously hijacked at Mowbray but later recovered in Thornton.
