An armed gang escaped with a loot of alcohol after breaking into a liquor store in Berea, Durban, on Tuesday morning.
According to police, the incident occurred at Pick n Pay Liquors at the Berea Centre about 5am.
Police spokesperson Capt Nqobile Gwala said a group of men allegedly held the security guards at gunpoint.
“One of the suspects threatened them with a firearm and the thieves broke the glass door. They took various liquors from the business premises before fleeing in their getaway vehicle. A case of business robbery has been opened for investigation at Umbilo SAPS,” said Gwala.
