Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>A FAMILY in Esigodini, Matabeleland South province, was left in shock after being attacked by two armed robbers who shot one of the members on the chest before they made off with US$45 000 cash on Saturday evening.<\/p>\n

The robbery occurred around 1830 hours at a house in Habane Township.<\/p>\n

\u201cDuring the incident, one occupant was shot on the chest and is currently receiving medical attention at a hospital in Bulawayo,\u201d police said in a statement.<\/p>\n

In an unrelated case, police in Avondale, Harare, are appealing for information which may lead to the arrest of eight suspected robbers who attacked an on-duty security guard at a local security company along Lynnington Road, Strathaven, and stole US$23 175 cash, five firearms, seven pepper sprays and seven handcuffs.<\/p>\n

The latest robberies come as police in Bulawayo are yet to account for a seven-member robbery gang that attacked a cash-transit vehicle at a local bank and got away with US$4 million in broad daylight.<\/p>\n

Bulawayo acting provincial police spokesperson Assistant Inspector Nomalanga Msebele yesterday told Southern Eye that the suspects were still on the run.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe incident occurred where the cameras were not yet installed by the police. We urge the business community to install cameras and link them with the police for monitoring so that such incidents won’t occur,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe also have emergency numbers as police so that the public should be aware and call in occurrence of such incidents.\u201d<\/p>\n
