Five gunmen robbed a supermarke­t in Matanzima Road, KwaNobuhle, on Wednesday night, stealing an undisclose­d amount of money.

Police spokespers­on Sergeant Majola Nkohli said the robbery took place at about 7.30pm when the men entered the store pretending to be customers.

“It is said that two of the men went to the manager’s office and forced him to open a safe at gunpoint. Three other suspects emptied two tills.”

Nkohli said the suspects then hijacked a green Hyundai parked outside the store.

“The driver was forced out of the car and the suspects fled in [it].” –
