Two Fawcett staff were injured, though not seriously. One was shot in the head, apparently with an AK47, although the bullet grazed the skull but the injury is not life threatening. Private security companies in Bulawayo expect the armed robbery menace to worsen.
Meanwhile, on 2 June a gang of six armed robbers overpowered Fawcett Security staff at Checheche in Chisumbanje, forced them to open the safes at gunpoint and got away with "substantial sums of cash". The criminals are still on the loose.
