Gyrocopter Used In Local Crime Fighting
Private security companies, Wierdabrug police and Sector 3 CPF came together to fight a recent increase in street robberies in the Raslouw and Heuwelsig community.
Their goal was to nake their presence known and show that they are fighting to stop these crimes in the future.
The robberies are targeted at workers who pass through the area in the afternoon. The robbers are usually after the workers’ money, Monitor Net spokesperson Jp le Roux explained.
As well as the workers, joggers have reported being robbed of their valuables and motorists have fallen victim to the smash and grab tactic.
A Gyrocopter flown by Andre Van zyl was used in the operation. Jp le Roux said that more of these operations will be carried out during the holiday season.
