Police launched a manhunt on Saturday for a cash-in-transit gang that pulled off a dramatic heist in Boksburg.
National police spokesperson, Brigadier Athlenda Mathe, said the gang used explosives to blow up a cash van near the Griffiths off-ramp on the N12.
An undisclosed amount of money was taken.
Mathe said the gang of at least 12, fled the scene in three BMWs.
She said police mobilised "maximum resources" to trace and apprehend the heavily armed suspects.
There were no reports of any casualties.
Gauteng police are appealing to communities to be on the lookout for two BMWs, a white X5 with registration HY 55 HF GP and a Silver BMW X2 with registration KN 47 KK GP.
