Two Chinese nationals, who operate a Supermarket at Central Amelia’s Ward, Linden, narrowly escaped being robbed of the day’s sales by a gunman and his accomplice, who stormed into their business place on Sunday (yesterday) to execute a daring robbery.
The attempted robbery took place around 19:59h when the Chinese couple were in the process of closing the Supermarket.
According to the police, the two (2) perpetrators approached the male proprietor and he quickly raised an alarm when one (1) of the men was attempting to search the cash register.
The two (2) perpetrators rushed out of the Supermarket, empty-handed, and the police were immediately summoned to the area.
Checks made for the two (2) suspects were unsuccessful.
Investigations continue.
