A video that has garnered a lot of attention on social media on Thursday morning shows a patron at a petrol station in Montclair, Durban being held at gunpoint and robbed.

The man, who is at the teller window of the service station, is approached by two armed suspects.

One of the robbers hits the patron when he refuses to go with him. A second person, believed to be a security guard, is attacked in the background.

The helpless victim repeatedly gestures to his blue BMW parked behind the suspect, and moments later, both men climb into the car and drive off.

Social media users were left angered at the fact that no one did anything.

"Surely staff at the garage have access to panic button? Alarm? Something? Even have staff have the security company number on speed dial on their phones?" one user asked.

Another added: "Guy will just sit and watch, no effort to go seek help, press panic button maybe?"

According to the post, which was shared by Yusuf Abramjee - @Abramjee, the incident occurred in Montclair, Durban, on Tuesday, 20 February 2024.
