AMBUSH: Robbers push moving motor-bike off the road, steal over US$8,000

The Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) is investigating a robbery case which occurred at Kasimure Village, Karoi on 13 March 2022 at around 1600 hours, where two complainants who were riding on a motor cycle lost cash amounting to US$8 010 and an Itel cellphone to three unknown suspects.

The suspects, who were armed with knives and a machete emerged from a bush and pushed the moving motorcycle resulting in the rider losing control of the cycle and fell down.

They then threatened the complainants with knives and stole the cash.

In another incident, police are investigating a robbery case in which four complainants were robbed of US$ 250 cash, four cellphones and other valuables, all valued at US$1 210, after they boarded a blue Nissan Sylph which had two occupants, at Harare Show grounds on 13/03/22 at around 1545 hours.

The vehicle was destined for Gweru and along the way at the 36 km peg (Harare-Bulawayo Road), the driver diverted the route and turned left into a dust road where they threatened the complainants with an unidentified pistol and stole the valuables before they dumped the complainants and sped off towards Harare.
