SAPS Humewood detectives are searching for three robbery suspects after they allegedly robbed a post office in Summerstrand this morning.

It is alleged that at about 09:00, an unknown black male entered the post office and made enquiries about motor vehicle's license renewal.  Thereafter, another male walked in and pointed a firearm at the cashier.  The third suspect then joined them.  An undisclosed amount of cash, the cashier’s cellphone and vehicle license papers were taken.  The staff were left in the toilet before the suspects fled in a silver Nissan Almera. No one sustained any injuries in the incident.

A case of business robbery is under investigation.

Police are appealing to anyone who can assist in the investigation to contact SAPS Humewood on 041 504 5019 or Crime Stop on 08600 10111 or by using MySAPS app. All information is confidential and callers may remain anonymous.
