The lengths people will go to for beer these days. Seriously. A little short on cash and a little thirsty, five people decided that the cash office of the local brewery would be a fantastic target. Also, robbing a brewery also carries some serious bragging rights. They didn’t plan on security having guns though.

Police Captain Andre Beetge has issued the following statement:

The five suspects were busy robbing the cash office and a shoot-out ensued, which led to five of the suspects [being] killed and six firearms recovered.

The Port Elizabeth police department was tipped-off about the heist, and was ready at the scene when events unfolded. Two other suspects fled in a white Jetta, which was later recovered by the police. It is not clear from the report how much beer is missing.
