The Directorate for Priority Crime Investigation known as Hawks has launched a manhunt for a group of suspects involved in a cash-in-transit robbery which took place in Du Noon, Cape Town last year.
The provincial spokesperson for the Hawks, Warrant Officer Zinzi Hani said the gang of suspects perpetrated the cash-in-transit robbery at business premises at the Stables in Du Noon.
The incident took place on December 4, 2023.
Preliminary reports indicated that the gang made off with one firearm, a magazine as well as rounds after holding up a security cash truck. A crew member was fatally wounded during an ensuing shoot-out between the robbers and the security detail escorting the cash truck.
More than 10 suspects were involved in the heist. The team is investigating a case of armed robbery and murder. The suspects are still at large and being sought, Hani said.
