Virginia South Africa – Tom de Wet of Volksblad writes: 'A Boer woman and family friend were forced into a ditch with shooting robbers during a mini-war between
SAPS and a cashtransit-robber gang. Eleanor Pretorius 43, was forced at gunpoint to switch on her bakkie so that one robber could flee with it.
However the suspect was shot dead within seconds inside her bakkie.. Mrs Pretorius of Virginia and friend Ashley Theron of Cape Town landed amidst the failed cashtransit-robbery on the road between Virginia and Ventersburg.
At least 20 robbers - including women - were involved. When the shooting died down, five robbers lay dead, six were injured and eight were arrested.
"Bodies and wounded were strewn across six crime-scenes between Virginia and Ventersburg while the police specialist-team were investigating.
They are looking for at least six more robbers who fled at high speed towards Hennenman.
