Two men on a motorcycle, as RTS unofficially learns, intercepted an employee of the “RIČ” trading company early this morning in the Đurevačko neighborhood of Prokuplje while he was entering his car. They sprayed him with pepper spray and stole an as yet unknown amount of money, which he had picked up from one of the stores of that retail chain immediately before the robbery.
The car, which the worker used to collect the previous day’s takings, continued uncontrollably down the street without a driver for about another 200 meters, where it was stopped by a fence it crashed into.
According to the few eyewitnesses, only by sheer luck was an additional accident avoided in the otherwise very busy Đurevačka Street, which at that time is usually used by a large number of vehicles, as well as pedestrians.

The two robbers left after stealing the money on the motorcycle they arrived on, in an unknown direction, while the worker, who was sprayed with pepper spray, was treated in the Ophthalmology Department of the Prokuplje Hospital due to health problems.
Đurevačka Street was closed to traffic while the investigation was ongoing.
The event, unprecedented in this part of Prokuplje so far, caused great concern among citizens, who, at first, could not believe that such a thing was happening.
The Prokuplje police have not yet issued a statement.
