Five arrested following Grahamstown business robbery


Grahamstown police have arrested 5 suspects, following a business robbery over the weekend.

Spokesperson, Capt Milanda Coetzer says a fast food outlet in High Street was robbed on Friday evening by three men, armed with firearms.

She says staff were pushed into a room at the back of the shop, and the robbers fled the scene with an undisclosed amount of cash and five cellphones.

Coetzer says no-one was injured during the robbery.

She says the police were alerted, and a short while later, five men, aged between 25 and 34, were arrested in Fingo Village in Grahamstown.

Coetzer says cellphones and cash were found in their possession.

The investigation is continuing.
