Hazyview - At least R1 million in cash was stolen after an SBV guard was robbed at gunpoint while loading cash into a bank ATM in Hazyview, Mpumalanga police said on Tuesday.

Spokesman Brigadier Selvy Mohlala said two armed men, wearing SBV uniforms, approached the SBV guard as he was loading cash into a Nedbank ATM early Tuesday.

“They pointed at him with firearms, and then emptied the cash tray he had loaded with money. They then escaped in a white Audi, a third suspect had stayed behind in the Audi,” Mohlala said.

There were no shots fired and no injuries.

A case of armed robbery is being investigated.
