I am part of our local sector crime forum in Midrand and information has just filtered through to us that a cyclist was shot and killed this morning at around 8AM during an armed robbery, north east of Copperleaf Estate, in Knoppieslaagte.

The only information we have at the moment is that he had an orange bicycle that was stolen.

Condolences to his family and friends.  Please be safe out there.

The difference between SA and the recent  Richmond Park incidents.  ????

Nail. Hammer. The fact that is selectively overlooked when comparing crime in SA to 1st world countries.

When I posted the Richmond thing someone said we don’t have a monopoly on crime. Someone then shot and killed a man. Heartbreaking

Terrible to be killed for something as simple as a bike...
A bike that would be sold for just a few Rands...
Life is too cheap and the consequences too lenient even if they are caught...

What a  country...

This part of Centurion is defiantly  a no go area anything west of R55 even behind Mall@reds. Yes nice rural tracks that meander through or close to 3 major informal settlements. You don't jog, ride horse, off road bike/ quad or cycle this area it will only be a matter of time.

Very sad indeed.

Devils are amongst us when we ride.

They have no conscious. So you cannot get rid of the violence in South Africa.

(Your conscious is your awareness of yourself and the world around you. In the most general terms, it means being awake and aware. ... Your consciousness refers to your conscious experiences, your individual awareness of your own internal thoughts, feelings, memories, and sensations)

MY respect and love to the family.
