Pretoria - A cafe owner in Mountain View, Pretoria, opened
fire, killing one of four men trying to rob his store on Friday morning,
police said.
Captain Lucas Sithole said another man believed to be part
of the group of four was arrested later in the morning.
The four men apparently entered the cafe early on Friday
morning intending to rob it, and drew their firearms.
The owner drew his own firearm, firing several shots at
the men, fatally wounding one of them.
One of three men who ran away was later arrested at the
Hercules railway station. He would be charged with attempted robbery and
attempted murder.
Police were searching for the remaining two robbers.
