pista Posted January 25, 2014 Posted January 25, 2014 Two PE cyclists were stabbed and robbed while out training this morning. They were attacked in separate robberies and the one cyclist is in a serious condition. The one attack was on the Ironman route in Heugh rd near 9th Ave and the other near the tip across from Walmer Township.
pista Posted January 25, 2014 Author Posted January 25, 2014 The attacks happened around 05:00 and 06:00
nathrix Posted January 25, 2014 Posted January 25, 2014 @CIA_dude: @GrootLem @KellsNortier @bicyclesafetysa it was Kobus De Vos. He was stabbed quite badly in face and neck.
Abercrombie Posted January 25, 2014 Posted January 25, 2014 Just come from casualty now, spoke to Kobus. Says riding down Heugh road and saw two guys walking up towards him, as he went past they stabbed him in the back of his neck. Goes down hard and the one piece of excrement starts making off with his bike whilst the other is stabbing in a frenzy shouting how he wanted money. Kobus was lying on his back kicking and trying to defend himself, arms and hands are a mess. Fortunately some cars came and the other animal ran off.So we don't have to contend with cars trying to wipe us out, even cycling early is unsafe due to this kind of excrement walking around
flymango Posted January 25, 2014 Posted January 25, 2014 Wishing both riders a speedy and full recovery.
Wannabe Posted January 25, 2014 Posted January 25, 2014 This makes my blood boil!!!!!! :cursing:Quick recovery, Kobus.
footdoc Posted January 25, 2014 Posted January 25, 2014 Terrible, please post the makes of the bikes so they have more difficulties trying to sell them. Stop the demand if possible. Hope you both get well soon. And back on your bikes. Refuse to let these idiots dictate what we do nathrix 1
Mr X Posted January 25, 2014 Posted January 25, 2014 This looks very much like a hate-crime: "the other is stabbing in a frenzy".
feetup Posted January 25, 2014 Posted January 25, 2014 Get well soon !This is why people leave these wonderful lands.And the government says crime is down?down the coast maybe?
Vetseun Posted January 25, 2014 Posted January 25, 2014 Facking animals! This makes me mad!!!I hope both cyclists make a speedy recovery. Good luck out there guys!
pista Posted January 25, 2014 Author Posted January 25, 2014 That's not Kobus in the photo. This was the rider that was attacked later. Don't want to share his name yet.
