‘n Transitorooftog by die Engen-vulstasie die afgelope Dinsdag (17 Junie) waartydens twee transito-wagte gewond is, het skokgolwe oor die Drakenstein-vallei gestuur, met sommige inwoners wat dit as ‘n ‘ongewone misdaad’ vir di\u00e9 gebied beskryf het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ooggetuies vertel minstens agt mans \u2013 sommige gewapen met AK-47’s \u2013 het die vulstasie omstreeks 08:30 bestorm en op die wagte van die maatskappy G4S en hul geldwa begin skiet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Dit was ‘n oor-en-weer-skietery,” het een ooggetuie op die toneel aan Paarl Post vertel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sers. Wesley Twigg, ‘n Wes-Kaapse polisiewoordvoerder, het by navraag aan Paarl Post ges\u00ea die wagte het glo ten tyde van die rooftog geld by die winkel gaan afhaal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Een veiligheidswag is in die kop gewond toe hy aangeval is en die bestuurder van die geldwa is in die been geskiet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Die verdagtes het met ‘n onbekende bedrag geld weggekom,” s\u00ea Twigg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die wagte is op die toneel deur paramedici vir hul wonde behandel en vir verdere behandeling na ‘n hospitaal in die omgewing vervoer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die vulstasie se personeel is ongedeerd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Luidens ‘n boodskap op een van die plaaslike noodgroepe is twee voertuie tydens die rooftog gebruik.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Daar was sowat sewe tot agt mans. Hul gesigte was bedek en hulle was gewapen met AK-47’s en 9\u2009mm-pistole. Versekeie skote is afgevuur,” lui die boodskap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Twigg het nie by navraag bevestig na presies hoeveel rowers die polisie op soek is nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hy s\u00ea wel ‘n saak van ‘n gewapende rooftog en twee poging-tot-moord-sake word tans deur die Mbekweni-polisie ondersoek.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die voorval volg twee maande nadat ‘n veiligheidswag van die maatskappy ADT Cash Services in ‘n transitorooftog op 15\u2009April by die Mbekweni-treinstasie gewond is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In di\u00e9 voorval is ho\u00eb- kaliber-vuurwapens, soortgelyk aan AK-47’s, glo gebruik.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die verdagtes het toe ook met ‘n onbekende bedrag geld weggekom en in ‘n wit Toyota Corolla, wat later in die Vlakkeland-omgewing verlate gevind is, weggekom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Meer as 200 transitorooftogte is volgens die Cash-In-Transit Association in South Africa (Citasa) in 2024 landwyd aangemeld.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
KwaZulu-Natal is as die provinsie met die hoogste risiko met 27% van die rooftogte ge\u00efdentifiseer, gevolg deur Gauteng (25%), die Oos-Kaap (21%), Mpumalanga (8%), die Wes-Kaap en Noordwes (onderskeidelik 6%), Vrystaat (5%) en Limpopo (2%)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
