JOHANNESBURG - Police have launched a manhunt for a group of robbers that blew up a cash-in-transit van on the N12, south of Johannesburg on Saturday.
It's believed the robbers cornered the vehicle along the N12 near Diepkloof, Soweto. The criminals fled with an undisclosed amount of cash.
Shortly after that residents of nearby areas were seen running towards the cash van to get any money they could lay their hands on.
The road has since been closed off towards Southgate Mall.
The robbers are said to have used the four luxury vehicles.
