Claremont police are seeking the assistance of the public in the search for 25 year-old Vutela Amon who is wanted on a charge of armed robbery.

This comes after two armed suspects approached a building contractor in Riverside Road Claremont on February 2 robbing him of a large amount of money and then fleeing the scene.

“They were pursued by staff members of the contractor, upon which the suspects fired several shots at them however no one was injured,” says police superintendent Andre Traut.

Vutela is believed to be a previous casual employee at the same building site.

Anyone with information on the whereabouts of Vutela Amon can contact Investigating Officer, Constable Lucian Matthys on 021 657 2266 or Crime Stop on 08600 10111.
