Loading player...
Armed men have stolen an undisclosed amount of money at a filling station at Lebowakgomo in Limpopo. Police spokesperson Hlulani Mashaba says a group of armed robbers broke into the premises and blew up the safe with explosives.

He talks to Mpho Mashita and Complexion about whether or not petrol stations are becoming the new target for criminals.
