    PIETERMARITZBURG – On Thursday four gunmen robbed passengers on an Intercape bus after it broke down close to the France township on the R56 Richmond Road in Pietermaritzburg, KwaZulu-Natal. A passenger named Lungi Shezi told TimesLIVE that she was travelling from Pietermaritzburg to Gqeberha. She said after the bus left the Pietermaritzburg stop, it experienced mechanical issues within 15km.

    Shezi said the passengers had to wait on the side of the road in the heat after a mechanic arrived to fix the bus. The mechanic reportedly failed to get the vehicle up and running and another bus was commissioned.
