Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>A suspected armed robber believed to have been part of the gang that raided ABC Auctions in Harare on October 8,<\/b> 2022, was shot and killed on Wednesday in Epworth, 17km south of Harare, during a shootout with police detectives.<\/p>\n

Two of his accomplices were also arrested during the shootout and are assisting police with investigations.<\/p>\n

The suspect identified as Trymore Bondamakara died from his injuries at Parirenyatwa Hospital in Harare a few hours later.<\/p>\n

The four robbers who were armed with four pistols attacked two security guards who were on duty at ABC Auctions along Seke Road, Harare and stole cash and property worth US$1.4 million.<\/p>\n

The robbers tied the security guards with shoelaces and put them under the guard of two robbers while the other two proceeded to the company offices, where they blasted five safes and reportedly stole cash and property.<\/p>\n

Investigators believe Bondamakara took part in the robbery dubbed Zimbabwe\u2019s second-biggest heist ever.<\/p>\n

The incident took place at around 1.30 AM on October 8.<\/p>\n
