There’s something about movies like ‘Ocean’s Eleven’ that appeals to a large majority of us. Maybe it’s the Robin Hood kind of vibe of stealing from the big boys, maybe it’s the fact that it stars Julia Roberts and Brad Pitt. Well, whatever the reason I’m sure at some stage we’ve all thought about pulling off an elaborate heist.

These guys in Durbs weren’t so much about the subtle approach, however, as they stormed an Engen petrol station on Peter Mokaba Road armed with AK-47s and cleaned out a cash-in-transit van. This from a witness News24 spoke to:

Early this morning I heard a flurry of shots. Sounded like fireworks but clearly wasn’t. I was told later that a cash van driver had been shot in the hand but otherwise there had not been any other serious injuries.

Still nowhere near as impressive as THIS GUY. I would dock them points for their rather disjointed exit but they managed to get away without being apprehended so we can’t ridicule too much.
