PARKWEG – Manhunt launched for three armed males after a jewellery store robbery at a Mall in the southern side of Bloemfontein. On 20 March 2025, at approximately 10:33, it is alleged that two unknown African males entered the store. One of the suspects, armed with a 9mm firearm, approached the cashier at the counter and demanded that he open the display cases containing jewellery. The suspect then instructed the cashier to call the manager from the back office to provide the keys. While the armed suspect controlled the employees, the second suspect proceeded to fill a black bag with jewellery. After collecting the stolen items, the suspects exited the store through entrance three of the mall. A third individual was observed standing outside the entrance. The suspects then fled the scene in a white Toyota Corolla with registration number LB67CG GP. No one has been arrested so far and Provincial Serious, Violent Crime and Murder Unit members have launched a manhunt and are investigating a case of business robbery. Anyone with information is urged to contact Detective Sergeant Seme Monyake of the Provincial Serious, Violent Crime and Murder Unit on 0824668530, Crime Stop on 0860010111 or drop an anonymous tip off on MySAPS App. Ends
