PORT ELIZABETH - 3 SUSPECTS ARRESTED AFTER ROBBING COMMERCIAL ROAD SHOP, GETTING CHASED AND CRASHING INTO BOUNDARY WALL

Police in Port Elizabeth made a speedy arrest on Tuesday morning following an armed robbery at a shop in Commercial Road in Sidwell.

Spokesperson Captain Johan Rheeder says four men held the shop-owner at gunpoint before stealing cigarettes, cash, phones and a laptop.

He says the men fled the scene in a pink Toyota Tazz which was spotted by Algoa Park Saps as it was speeding towards Zwide.

Rheeder says a chase ensued and the pink Tazz eventually crashed into a boundary wall.

One of the suspects managed to flee while three others, all in their thirties, were arrested.

Police confiscated a toy gun and some of the stolen goods.

The men will appear in court soon.
