Community works together to loot cash in transit vehicle, Mzansi responds: “Christmas came early”
In a related story, Briefly News reported that anti-crime activist Yusuf Abramjee shared a very concerning video of a cash in transit vehicle's heist. It seemed as though community members near the R511 in Diepsloot wanted to ensure their festive season was a jolly one.
The video shared by Abramjee showed an influx of people rushing to the CIT van. At the beginning of the video, the van was surrounded by people. A truck passed by and when the cameraman's vision was clear again, people had scattered.
The video has been viewed over 12 400 times on Twitter and has received quite a few retweets from concerned Saffas.
