A woman had a firearm shoved into her mouth during a house robbery on Katoomba Street in Kensington on Friday, December 4, at 4am.
The Cleveland SAPS spokesperson, Constable Mpho Mashakane, said the woman was sleeping in an outside room when she heard the sound of someone cutting off the lock on her door.
“Five men entered. One of the men ordered her to open her mouth and he shoved a firearm into her mouth. The men asked if the owner of the main house in. She told them she did not know where he was. The men took her cellular phone which was hanging on the wall. The men also stole some of her groceries before tying her up with wire,” said Const Mashakane.
She said the preliminary investigation revealed that the men had entered by lifting an electrical fence from its rail.
