Eastern Cape police have launched a search for three suspects following a business robbery in Peddie.
Provincial spokesperson, Col Sibongile Soci says it is alleged that the manager of the business was with his two employees when a suspect entered, produced a firearm and ordered him to open the safe.
Two other suspects then entered and started kicking him.
Soci says the manager opened the safe and the suspects fled with an undisclosed amount of money and a cellphone in a car belonging to the business.
The vehicle was later found abandoned.
No one was injured during the robbery.
