Dear Obsies, At 04:30 Three coloured males of about 1.8m height, average build broke down the driveway gates, damaging the motor mechanism. Climbed over a fence on the side of the house, smashed a glass window and forced off the burglar bars. Entered the room of an absent French student tenant and likely stole her laptop and other electronics (still finding out).
When confronted by the other 3 or 4 woken up other foreign and one Zulu female student tenants they threatened them with knifes and shouted they will shoot them (no fire arm was however seen). Nobody was hurt but needless to mention that the ladies were severely shocked and traumatised by this incident. This is why we didn't manage to get a detailed description of the suspects or get away car or other modus operandi. A hat from one of the perps was found on the property and hopefully this may help Obsid to identify the suspects from CCTV footage. This report was made possible due to an active WhatsApp Group which reported some 8 incidents in a few days in Oxford Road alone. You to can become part of a WhatsApp Group as not to be alone, neighbour are there to assist you.
