In a separate incident, the owner of a supermarket at Sutherlands reported that around 10 pm, two men, wearing masks and armed with what appeared to be firearms, entered the business place and stole a cash register containing an undisclosed sum of money.
They were reportedly dressed in grey hoodies, white masks, and red and grey pants.
