Three guards were injured when they were assaulted during a robbery at Rand Airport in Germiston, Gauteng police said on Monday. Captain George Raphulu said the incident occurred on Sunday night after eight armed men entered the Harvard Bar restaurant and held up the staff.
"They tied up the guards and assaulted them... they then went to the office and broke the wall where the safe is located. "The men took the safe outside and broke it open. They then sped off with some money, after taking belongings of those in the restaurant," he said.
No shots were fired and the guards sustained minor injuries. Raphulu said no arrests had been made.
