Pampierstad-Police are investigating an armed robbery that occurred a month ago at approximately 09:00am in Pampierstad. 

 

The owner of the tuck-shop was allegedly busy opening his business when four men pounced on him. 

 

“They allegedly pointed him with a firearm, robbed and fled with an undisclosed amount of cash, airtime and groceries” lieutenant Sergio Kock said.
