Two security guards were overpowered by three robbers on the farm Drakenzicht in Groot Drakenstein. The attack happened on Sunday night (22 February) at around 22:45. The three robbers entered the premises and tied up the security guards with a rope.
One of them was armed with a firearm.
The suspects stole sound equipment and 19 solar panels. According to a police spokesperson a reward of R20 000 is being offered for the stolen goods as both the sound equipment and solar panels are rare and valuable.
