“The homeowners who were present at the time were confined to a bedroom while the armed men ransacked their home before making off with the family vehicle, a Mercedes Benz A200. The street patrol guard was dropped off a short distance down the road as the suspects fled the scene,” he said.
According to Van Reenen, the stolen vehicle was fitted with a satellite tracking device monitored by Netstar and was later recovered by Marshall Security and Netstar recovery teams in the KwaMashu area.
