Cape Town – A video of an armed security guard running away after mistaking a man for a robber inside an unknown store has gone viral on social media.
In the video, a security guard with what appears to be an AK-47 rifle is standing next to what looks like an ATM at an unknown store while consumers go about their business.
An unknown man appears to be pushing through the crowd moving towards the armed security guard.
When the security guard notices the man, he takes off running, followed by consumers, leaving the suspicious man alone at the store.
