Asst Comm Nyathi said the robbers were given US$1 000, 400 rands, four cellphones and two inverters. He added:<\/p>\n

The complainant made a quick report to Police and as the scene was being attended to, another report was received. Police swiftly attended the scene and met the quartet at the doorstep.<\/p>\n
