Warning: Hi-jack/Smash & grab spot (JHB)

[Loon]

Geez WB, glad she is ok... <?: prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

 

Think she should try and persuade her boss to let her off in daylight.

What time at night did this happen?

This county is free falling into  disaster. I was at the Fuzz AKA... The ) Shop the other day. They could not find a case number... But needless to say. I was standing over them when they were paging thought this HUGE case book. Man... That was a scary read... over 300 cases of armed robbery, murder, rape, gun point instances, hi-jacking... All in the Randburg area... IN ONE DAY AND NIGHT..........

 

I did not sleep very well that night.

Also could be a hotspot is at Hofmeyer & 5th Avenue - Linden.

 

It is not a busy intersection and there is a fence/bridge/park that they can hide in.

 

Scary

I did call the Linden police station and asked them to send someone over there.

 

I have forwarded the details of the incident to the Linden CPF as well as notified the people concerned and it will hopefully be discussed at tomorrows meeting. They will then note it and hopefully do patrols to clear out the area.

 

Not such an easy problem to remedy

slightly off the topic:

 

I've been wondering for some time now: what message does goverment want to convey with those signs on almost every intersection in Pta/Jhb.

 

"BEWARE OF YOUR OWN SAFETY"

 

Do they mean:

 

a) Be on the lookout for suspious movement in the tall grass (we don't cut) next to the road' date=' while slowing down approching a 4way stop, robot, intersection.

 

b) When, women traveling alone late at night , it's allright to skip a red robot after making sure there's no oncoming traffic. We will not send you a fine in the post.

 

c) When confronted by a would be hi-jacker, it would be fine if you use exessive force to defend yourself, and in the event of killing the attacker we will not hunt you down and put you in jail .

 

d)Lastly, you are on your own and we just do not give a damn.

 

I'm confussed.

If that is the wording, then it's grammatically erroneous. Like completely!

 

You can beware of snakes

You can beware of dogs

You can beware of criminals

You can beware of potholes

You can beware of your own safety?

Any place where you are gonna stop for whatever reason is a highjack/grab spot . One of our employers stopped next to the N1 after Samrand after his motorbike got a flat . These monkeys jumped outta bush , neat him up and took his cell . My friend run one over at the Rigel turnoff when he saw him doing a smash and grab . He only managed to break his leg with the car and therefor had to get out and break his face into small pieces with the wheel spanner.
