WATCH: Cash van bombed on KwaMashu Highway
Authorities are searching for a gang that carried out a cash-in-transit heist on KwaMashu Highway.
It's understood that around 12 robbers, who were travelling in two vehicles, opened fire on the cash van on Monday night.
KZN VIP's Gareth Naidoo says the vehicle was found blown up on Duffs and KwaMashu Cross Roads, with the money it was transporting stolen.
Naidoo says the group also opened fire on motorists and metro officials who were responding to a nearby crash.
