Gokwe People Catch Robbers After Stealing From A Mukuru Outlet
Five robbers armed with an unidentified gun and knives were nabbed by members of the public after pouncing on a Mukuru outlet in Gokwe while one of the gang escaped with the money.
A witness who spoke to Pindula News said the robbers are known, local people. He said the robbers fired two rounds in a bid to scare members of the public who were closing in on them.
The witness said members of the public pursued the robbers at a distance as they were not sure whether the robbers’ gun was empty or not. He said:
One of the robbers was hit by a stone from the public and fell down. Police officers arrested him as we continued to pursue the other four among them a gun-wielding man. They were caught before the police arrive and were thoroughly beaten by members of the public. We then handed them to the police. The one with the cash was not caught. When they fled from the scene, he went in a different direction.
