In the video the escort van is shot at by armed robbers and it gets rammed onto as they try to immobilize it.

The driver can be seen visibly shaken but quickly regains his focus and tries so hard to keep the van under control.

The video has gone viral on social media platforms attracting praise for the crew who maintained their cool in terrific circumstances.

Abramjee reported that the cruiser driver managed to take out two of the robbers’ vehicles.

Both the driver and his crew survived the attack but unfortunately one person from another escort vehicle was fatally shot.

Well, that .za in the URL is the top level domain for South Africa. So yes, your first choice.

Driver was a boss = kept his cool and rammed the two attacking vehicles. Grabbed the M4 and looked like he was capable of greasing anyone in range.

Re: Cash van

The attempted hold up would be a great ad for Bitcoin...

No matter how many times they shoot your computer, Bitcoin will never surrender!

Yeah, he locked up pretty good. Situational awareness from the driver was excellent, though.
