In other news making headlines, Briefly News previously reported that a shop owner was robbed in Brakpan and the ugly incident was caught on camera. In the viral video footage, a shop owner is seen helping his customers as they buy a few items.

In the clip, there are three guys in the shop and the one wearing a red shirt and white hat is standing in front of the owner, who is serving him.

However, when he is done with the transaction, he snatches a phone belonging to the shop owner and runs away in seconds. The owner also tried to chase him but it seems he failed to recover the stolen phone.
