BRITS POS – BRITS – On Tuesday evening, 16 April around 19:50 motor vehicles were travelling on the N4 direction Pretoria and a number of kilometers after exiting the Brits Toll Plaza, a man who was driving from Rustenburg to Pretoria with his father, hit one of the rocks that were placed on the road by thugs, which caused a puncture to one of the tyres.
They stopped on the side of the road to inspect the damage and the driver called his cousin to inform him about their dilemma.
Then they were approached by three males, demanding money and their belongings.

Die aasvoëls in ons gebied is onlangs herontplooi na ‘n veiliger habitat.
