News24 reports that a security guard at Dragon City in Johannesburg was killed on Friday afternoon at approximately 12:45 in a failed armed robbery attempt.
Police spokesperson Captain Kay Makhubele said the suspects' getaway vehicle, an Audi Q5, had been reported hijacked in Joburg earlier this month. The suspects were cornered in a house at Berta Street, in Braamfontein and six were arrested. During the arrest, five unlicensed firearms, including two AK-47s and two pistols, were recovered. Makhubele indicated the suspects would appear in the Johannesburg Magistrate’s Court on Monday.
