While the robbery was in progress, a customer entered and upon realising what was unfolding, she exited and sounded the alarm to community members,\u201d Naidu said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The suspects fled with community members chasing after them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSAPS Kamesh members immediately responded and also chased after the suspects. The suspects pointed firearms at the police, who reacted by firing at them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cTwo suspects sustained injuries, with one fatally wounded. The deceased, identity still unknown, sustained multiple gunshot wounds and fell in a yard in Falcon Street, where he succumbed to his injuries.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The other suspect was shot in his upper leg and ankle and was taken to hospital for treatment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe remaining two suspects were found hiding in a house in Osprey Street. Two replica firearms, cash and the stolen goods were recovered in the house,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Police have opened a case of armed robbery and an inquest was opened in respect of the deceased suspect. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The arrested suspects, all in their late 20s, are expected to appear in the Kariega Magistrate\u2019s court soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\"
