They discovered that the robbers fled after stealing the cash, alcohol & cigarettes from the bar premises.

Reaction Officers conducted an extensive search for the gunmen, but no arrests were made. The Reaction Unit South Africa officers have shared that they are continuing the investigation into the matter.

The people of the country have shared that the business robberies have made the province and the Tongaat neighbourhood insecure and dangerous. The increasing number of such incidents has led many patrons to change their preferred businesses.

The lack of safety in several neighbourhoods of KwaZulu-Natal has resulted in many businesses in the country face reduction and loss of costumers.

One of the social media users, Xolanie Quinton also expressed his views on the incident, “You see I have to get another bar… Paradise Is No Longer Safety.” Said the patron.

Another user claimed, Arbee Drive with its location is very sketchy nowadays. Not only for business, but for everyone, despite its proximity to the SAPS services.

The social media user added, “I had a bad experience there and so did many others, just that these stats are hardly reported or published. As for the business in question, 4 times is too much, they ought to rethink how they do business. It’s sad however. I hope no one was injured.”
