Car theft warning for this group of people in South Africa

BRITS POS – BRITS - The Insurance Crime Bureau (ICB) has warned of a drastic spike in vehicle thefts across Gauteng, particularly in the Pretoria and East Rand areas, targeting elderly female shoppers.
The suspects, typically operating in groups of three comprising one female and two males, use distraction tactics to steal car keys from these unsuspecting victims before making off with their vehicle from the parking area.
The ICB has reviewed camera footage showing that these criminals tend to go for older females who put their handbags and car keys in the upper section of the shopping trolley.

Allegations of murder and robbery – arrests made

BRITS POS – HARTBEESPOORT - Diligent investigations by the Bojanala sub-district 1 (Brits) detectives, Hartbeespoortdam detectives and community members, led to the arrest of three suspects between the ages of 22 to 37. 
This came after the body of a 34-year-old man was allegedly found in the bushes near Xanadu Estate in Hartbeespoort on Wednesday, 16 April 2025, late in the afternoon.  

Klein botteltjies – groot ‘gif’

BRITS POS – HARTBEESPOORT - Waterhiasint (Eichhornia crassipes) en gewone salvinia is albei indringerwaterplante, maar hulle verskil aansienlik in hul voorkoms, groeigewoontes en impak op water-ekosisteme.
Dié pes wat inheemse plante en vis op groot skaal beïnvloed en waterbronne selfs van suurstof beroof, bedreig nie net die ekologie nie, maar ook toerisme by Hartbeespoortdam.
