Police spokesperson Brigadier Athlenda Mathe said officers caught the suspects after receiving information of the planned heist.
Mathe said law enforcement intercepted some members in Vrede, Free State, and caught others in Memel, about 52km away travelling in separate vehicles to KwaZulu-Natal.
“Police were following up on intelligence of a planned CIT when a shootout ensued between police and suspects. Unfortunately, a 40-year-old security officer was shot and killed when the suspects, who were travelling in a dodge sedan, opened fire.”
