The driver asks his colleague to cock his rifle as bullets slam into the armoured vehicle. Screenshot.A security escort who dodged a hail of bullets while he and his colleague were driving in Pretoria said his cool response was based on preparedness and his instincts., Leo Prinsloo said: “You sort of need to expect things like that to happen because it prepares your mind for what you need to do.“That is what I did.
He also offers training in “real-life firearm, defensive and offensive combat experience”.it was only his fourth day on the job, and the first time he had been shot at.The incident was caught on dashboard video. Both men are wearing bulletproof vests. Several loud bangs signal they are under attack and Prinsloo, the driver, displays nerves of steel as he takes evasive action. The would-be robbers fled after the foiled attack.The cash in transit escort drivers name is Leo Prinsloo. Ex South African Special Police taskforce member / sniper. He rammed and chased one of the Audi's into a hotel carpark. Suspects ran into McDonalds. 2 x AK47's recovered. Lucky for them they got away.
And what about many other CIT drivers that have risked their lives to avert heists. When do we get to know about them?
Now it's making sense, i was wondering how come an ordinary security guard to have such courage and experience
Now it makes sense, it’s special task force after all. They should be proud of themselves at SAPoliceService
Kudos to him. Wonder what happened - from working as a special task force officer, to being a transit driver 🤔

Guard in viral foiled heist video given extra security detail after death threatsLeo Prinsloo, the hero guard whose brave escape from armed suspects has sparked the interests of communities around the world, has been placed under police guard following death threats. You have to put both of them under police guard, the brother was ready for war too. The other guy looks like he was shocked beyond shock. Are we in that kind of a country already where criminals make follow ups on killing people, and we insist on Sec 9 of the constitution for the sake of the dignity of criminals? War must be declared on criminals of cash in transit crime. Wish we had a government to react to this🤔
