Police set a trap and went into the shop to wait for the suspects.
In the early hours of the morning in Sunday, police allegedly heard a noise on the roof of the shop and arlams were deactivated.
“All suspects entered into the shop through the roof and were allegedly arrested for business robbery and being in a possession of unlicenced firearm” Mdhluli said.
One of the suspects was shot in a leg after he tried to escape the wrath of justice.
They appeared before court and their case was postponed until next week Wednesday.
