Johannesburg - A total of 120 computers were stolen from a business in Jet Park near Boksburg north on the East Rand, Gauteng police said on Sunday.

Captain Petros Mabuza said a Korean company was robbed by five men, two of whom were armed, around 15:00 on Saturday.

They arrived in an eight-ton truck and told the security guard they were delivering something.

Once inside, they held the four people on the premises at gunpoint and forced a forklift operator to load the computers into the truck.

The robbers then allegedly stole money and cellphones from staff and locked them in a toilet before fleeing.

No shots were fired and no one was injured during the robbery. No arrests had been made, said Mabuza.
