Tsotsotso said stats will only be discussed during SAPS’s next meeting and media is only to be informed of the hot spots so Kemptonians may be weary in these following areas:
Hijackings
Hijackings were reported to be a high risk factor in Cresslawn, Modderfontein and Kempton Park West. No details of dates, times or amount of suspects and relevant details pertaining to the crimes were released for publication.
House robberies
Esther Park proved to be problematic as far as house robberies were concerned. Again, no detailed report regarding house robberies was released and members of the community are reminded to have all entrances to their homes securely locked at all times.
Business robberies were also recorded in Longmeadow.
Robbery with firearms
Tsotsotso reported armed robberies occurred in Spartan and Kempton Park West. An unknown amount of suspects or modus operandi of these crimes were released.
