They followed the oil trail to a house on Poplar Street. The suspected occupants as well as the vehicle were in the garage, but when they saw the patrollers they promptly closed the door.
WSRNW patrollers then called Roodepoort Police. The police took the culprits to the scene of the accident, where they spilled the beans and undertook to repair the wall.
No one was arrested.
