Two
of the thugs held the officer’s colleague at gunpoint and demanded their
firearms and cellphones.
The
other officer said he was ordered to lie on the ground.
“One
of the men struggled to cock his gun.”
He
said the man moved away while he was struggling with his firearm.
“Seconds later I could hear
he had succeeded and his firearm was ready to be fired.”
The
situation however, changed when the officer’s neighbour pulled his car out of
his driveway.
“The
thugs aimed their firearms at my neighbour, forced him out of his car and drove
away.”
The
officer said he was grateful that his neighbour inadvertently saved his life.
The
officer said he did not believe it was a standard robbery.
