House Robbery on Woodpecker St, Lenasia X1

Description

On 06/11/2012, there was a house robbery at 52 Woodpecker Street in Lenasia X1 at about 9:25am. 6 black males armed with guns, in a late model dark blue Toyota Camry entered the house as the occupants were about to leave. They were in the house for approximately 5 minutes. During this period they pistol-whipped the two elderly female residents who have since been taken to hospital. The daughter arrived home and surprised the robbers. She began screaming which alerted the neighbours. The robbers fled with some jewellery that the ladies were wearing and a very small amount of cash. Early indications are that the gardener may have been involved. We once again urge residents NOT to hire people off the street as this has proven to be a dangerous practice in the past. Source: ESS Security [01]
