Four men have been arrested in Samora Machel in Nyanga for business robbery and attempted murder.
It is alleged that the suspects robbed cash at a tavern in the area on Monday.
Police spokesperson Captain Ntomboxolo Sitshitshi says the four pointed firearms and demanded cash from the cashier as well as the owner of the tavern.
“The owner was shot in the stomach by the suspects and was rushed to hospital. The four suspects fled the scene with cash,” she said.
When the suspects arrested police recovered some of the cash and confiscated two firearms and ammunition in possession of them.
They will appear in the Athlone Magistrates’ court tomorrow on charges of business robbery, attempted murder and possession of unlicensed firearms and ammunition.
