ROBBERS have struck a Sai Mart Supermarket shop in Nkulumane 12 suburb, Bulawayo and allegedly got away with US$2 000 after firing a single shot inside the shop.
According to one of the retail shops’ managers, the robbers, believed to have been three, pounced around midmorning, and one of them fired a single shot in the air while another stood guard at the main entrance.
“They went away with just over US$2 000. None of the employees was injured during the robbery,” said the manager.
Bulawayo police spokesperson, Inspector Nomalanga Msebele said detectives from the homicide section are attending the scene.
In February this year, brave New Lobengula residents foiled an armed robbery that was about to take place at a Sai Mart Supermarket in the suburb, while in December last year, three gunmen stormed Choppies Supermarket in
New Luveve after firing some shots and got away with an undisclosed amount of cash.
