How long do you think it takes for robbers to pounce on an unsuspecting driver and make their getaway? Five minutes or maybe two minutes at a push? Not even - it takes a mere 30 seconds flat.

According to Netstar, 68% of all hijackings occur close to home, and that is exactly what happened in this incident, as this CCTV footage shows.

Half a minute is all it took for a black bakkie to pull into the entrance of a complex and two armed men to leap from their car, confronting the people in the bakkie.

In a flash, a third man appears and points his gun at another vehicle that is approaching, but quickly reverses away from the scene.
