Police in Table View were called out to an armed robbery in Link Road, Parklands yesterday afternoon. The robbery occurred in front of a business premises.

The incident occurred after the owner of the business returned from a bank and parked his vehicle, a blue Opel Astra, in the parking area in front of his business.

The police however could not catch up with the two suspects, as they fled the scene in a Honda Ballade.

The suspects are still at large. Inspector Bernadine Steyn of the SA Police Service said a maroon Honda Ballade stooped next to the victim and one of the suspects approached the victim on foot.

“Two shots were fired allegedly after which the suspects took a bag containing an undisclosed amount of money and fled the scene.”

Steyn said nobody sustained any injuries during the incident and the police have opened a case of Armed Robbery for investigation.

Anyone with information can contact Captain Grant La Mour at the Table View Police station on 021-521 3300.
