Man Gets 12 Years for Bicycle Theft at Gunpoint.
A court in Mutare sent a man to prison for stealing a teen's bike with a gun. Josiah Saungweme, 30, must serve 12 years after a judge found him guilty.
The crime took place on a road near 22 Miles in Marange last September. Saungweme acted like he needed help finding his way. He stopped a 17-year-old boy who rode past on a silver Buffalo bike.
The truth came out fast. Instead of asking for help, Saungweme pulled out a Blow F92 pistol. He aimed it at the scared teen and ordered him to give up his bike. The young rider had no choice but to hand it over.
The teen went straight to the police. They tracked down Saungweme at his home in Bvirindi B, near Chief Zimunya's area. He faces his punishment after the court heard all the facts and found him guilty of armed theft.
