“While searching the first two men, the others started the vehicle in an attempt to get away,” said Boksburg North SAPS communications officer Capt Juanita Coetzer.

In their possession, they found a 9mm pistol with the serial number filed off, one magazine with 14 rounds, a toy gun, a balaclava and a knife.
They were detained at Boksburg North SAPS.
