Liebman Snoer (19), Jean Snoer (19), Leonard Kruger (19), Jonatan Swart (22) and Jason Gumley (18), were all arrested on suspicion of their involvement with the brutal assault and robbery.<\/p>\n

They have appeared in court on Friday, following the arrest of Liebman Snoer, by Guardian Protection Services, last Thursday afternoon.<\/p>\n

He was taken into custody and questioned, which led to the other arrests.<\/a><\/p>\n

The group of men are alleged to have submitted a fraudulent pizza order for five large pizzas, delivered to Helen Joseph Street 106, around 21:50, two Fridays ago.<\/p>\n

When Mr Msimango pulled up with the order, a group of men emerged from an undeveloped stand next door.<\/p>\n

The five men pulled Mr Msimango from his scooter, and started assaulting him with a stick, their fists and feet, after which they stole the five pizzas, together with R800 of Mr Msimango’s taking for the day.<\/p>\n

His scooter was also badly damaged in the attack.<\/p>\n

Bail was denied for all five during their appearance for assault to do grievous bodily harm and common robbery.<\/p>\n

They will appear in court again on December 2, when they will formally apply for bail.<\/p>\n
