It was an unusual type of armed robbery as some armed hoodlums carried out an attack on a Liquor Store in Mbobela, South Africa a few hours ago.

At about 18.45 local time, three armed men appeared at a liquor store located at Ferreira Street, hit the Shop Assistant on the head from behind with a weapon of some sort which knocked him out and so made it impossible for him to know how many the hoodlums were.

Evidence from a video surveillance equipment however showed that the Shop Assistant was on the floor unconscious for about a half hour before waking up to press the panic button which then alerted Hi-Tech Security (the security company attached to the shop).

Before then however, the robbers had made away with their loot which consisted of cigarettes, liquor, a cellphone and an undisclosed amount of money.

Some people who happened to pass around the area at about the time of the incidence said they saw three men walking briskly away from the store. “We think they must have parked a vehicle further away from the scene so we don’t have a description”, they stated.

In the meantime, the Shop Assistant has been treated for his head injury by the Hi-Tech Security medical services and later transported to a hospital.
