The Primrose police appeal to the community to be on the lookout for a silver Volkswagen Polo.
This vehicle is believed to be occupied by two men and one woman and has been sighted in the area.
The criminals gain entry into houses in the following ways:
- Â They claim they are from the metro and are there to take a head count of the children in the home.
- Â They tell home owners that they are there to check the house’s main switch.
- Â They claim they are at the house to change all the light bulbs to energy efficient bulbs.
Once they are inside the house a firearm is produced and the house and its occupants are robbed.
“We therefore ask the community to be alert and aware of their surroundings,” stated communications officer for the Primrose police, Sgt Styles Maome.
My silver VW Polo was stolen on 15th from Edenvale – it’s probably mine they are driving around in :'(
Of cause they would post a picture of a white man. Posting a picture of a black man is racist.
Monja, what was the reg no. of your car? Will keep a look out.
Germiston City News, was it white men who robbed this people. Please use appropriate pictures for yor next media. This is what one calls racist.
The photo used in this article is a generic photo. Generic photos are used when there is no actual photo to accompany article.
Is it white or black persons doing this. My friend in Marlands had a attempted burglary on Wednesday morning about 2 am 3 black males were trying to enter the house luckily the dog alerted owner’s were alerted
Why are people getting all worked up about the white “burglar” in the generic picture??? I’m a white guy and I don’t find this insulting at all.
