R18,000 worth of comforters and curtains was stolen from a car on South Coast Road in Clairwood.
The driver of the vehicle, who was doing plumbing work at the time of the theft, hear the sound of glass breaking. Curious about the noise, he went to investigate and saw three suspicious men run away with bunches of comforters and curtains from his vehicle.
While the criminals were making their getaway, a group of unknown people began throwing stones and shouting profanities at them. “Unfortunately, during the commotion the victim’s brother was struck on the head with a rock but no serious injuries were reported,” said Montclair SAPS communication officer, Lt Dereck Vijiam.
