Two security guards were injured and three cash boxes were taken in a cash-in-transit heist on the N7 highway near Milnerton today. A Mercedes Benz followed the security van and rammed the van, causing it to topple onto its side.

According to a SAPS spokesperson Captain Elliot Sinyangana, the driver and the passenger of the security van both sustained injuries and were taken to a nearby hospital for treatment. “The six men who hi jacked the truck, stole three to four bags carrying an undisclosed amount of money,” said Sinyangana. The men then fled the scene.

At this point, no arrests have been made, but a case of armed robbery and attempted murder has been opened.
