Bloemfontein - Four robbers shot and killed a businessman in front of his employees at a park at the foot of Bloemfontein's Naval Hill this afternoon.
Johannes Rondganger was busy paying his workers’ salaries when the four gunmen arrived.
According to one of the employees, a newspaper seller, Rondganger, in his forties fought back, but one robber fired three shots killing him while he was sitting in his bakkie. They then allegedly left the murder scene calmly on foot after taking the money and were picked up by a getaway car nearby.
Rondganger reportedly was also waiting for his children, who attend school at Oranje Girls School opposite the park.
Police spokesperson, Annelie Wrensch, says no arrests have yet been made.
