In a brazen attack in Hillbrow, Johannesburg, two security guards, aged 45 and 50, were killed in plain view of pedestrians and motorists while sitting in their patrol vehicle.
The security guards, who worked for GP 2 Chubb security, had their firearms stolen.
TimesLIVE reports that two men approached the vehicle, before killing the guards. A third man then attempted to join in in the looting of the officers and their vehicle.
You can see it play out here:
An investigation is underway, and the suspects are still at large.
Let’s take a moment to talk about the people who filmed the incident, who seem more concerned about the quality of the video than the murder they’ve just witnessed.
We shouldn’t be this desensitised to crime and death.
Be better, people.
