Brackendowns reservists and Bracken CPF pulled over a suspicious minibus, the occupants exited the vehicle and immediately started firing at the members.
One of the rounds hit the CPF member in his vest leaving a print.
One suspect was shot on scene and in the follow up operation involving Alberton Afriforum, the CPF and private security firms, another suspect was shot & arrested. A total of 5 suspects were caught, all Zimbabwean nationals living in Berea.
It is suspected that they were on their way to pull a robbery in the shopping complex.
This is another prime example that the citizens of the once proud Republic of South Africa can make a difference. 100% of this success is thanks to people giving up their free time to fight crime.
