Durban - Eight suspected armed robbers have been arrested after three of them were wounded in a shoot-out with South African Police Service (SAPS) officers following a business robbery in Ballito, south of Durban, the SAPS in KwaZulu-Natal said on Saturday.

Slightly disappointing that they did not mow all eight down, it's a step backwards in the fight against crime.

Well done SAPS, though "Police kill all 8 suspects..." would've been more preferable.
