ANOTHER resident was the victim of criminals roaming around the intersection of Dann and Great North roads behind Avion Park.
Following last week’s article about a four-year-old boy being struck on the head with a brick, a Terenure resident, who wishes to remain anonymous, told EXPRESS about his ordeal an this dangerous intersection on May.
He said he was driving from Lakeside Mall in his double-cab Toyota Hilux bakkie just after midnight.

“As I slowed down at the traffic light, people jumped into my car, forcing me out as the doors were not locked. I was stabbed in the head with a bottle and beaten close to unconsciousness as I put up a fight,” the man said.
The robbers stripped him of his jeans, cap and Timberland boots, and took his cellphone and wallet.
“They left me for dead, bleeding next to the road.”
However, the hijackers did not get far with his bakkie, as the anti-hijack device kicked in, causing the vehicle to cut out.
“Before they could return to me, a police van doing rounds spotted my car as the alarm rang with hazards flashing.”
