Three days earlier, on Wednesday, January 22, around 2:40 PM, the same mobile phone store was also the target of an armed robbery. Two men in black entered, smashed display cases, and threatened the staff with a weapon. They then fled, presumably towards Sieg Vaz Diasstraat, with an unknown number of phones. Thankfully, no one was injured. The detectives are investigating both cases and checking if they are related.
