Screen-grab showing the suspects breaking into the house
CCTV footage shows suspects breaking into a house in broad daylight when they were scared off by the gardener next door in Van Riebeeck Park, on the East Rand.
The couple was at the coast at the time of the incident on April 18.
The perpetrators broke open the electronic gate.
The gardener next door heard the commotion and, without considering his own safety, ran to the criminals and shouted loudly.
The burglars stopped their activities and fled the scene.
