Cape Town - Six suspected hijackers were stopped in their tracks by police outside a Cape Town shopping centre.
Alert police had chased after the suspects from an unknown location to the Ottery Centre in Ottery Road on Monday afternoon.
It is believed the gang tried to pass themselves off as security guards when they drove the hijacked truck into the parking lot of the centre to evade police.
But as soon as they pulled up, police officers pounced and had them lying face down on the ground where they were handcuffed.
Shocked shoppers and staff members surrounded the men, who were made to lie in a line, head to toe, while police took down their details.
