Hi Henning Sorry to hear about your most unfortunate incident but glad that both of you are OK. I happened to be working in our front room at 49 Scott and I heard a woman's scream and ran out to our gate. The neighbor across the road at number 70 also came out. This is what I saw.
There was an old square shaped dark greeny colour Toyota Corolla parked in Scott Road just outside number 53 on the left hand side going up but parked rather skew in the road with a driver in it. It started up the engine and the exhaust was very noisy. Then I saw the white (now I know its yours) Renault come round the corner rather fast and wondered what was happening as whoever was driving your car was clearly following the Toyota. They both went around the top corner into the Main Rd towards Mowbray and I could hear the noise of the Toyota for a long while so I assume that they must have driven onto the N2. I never heard anything further from around the corner where you stay so actually assumed that all was OK. Trust that these guys who are terrorizing our Neighbourhood will be caught asap and for now and always BE ALERT, VIGILANT,CAREFUL ETC. Also good to have pepper spray or a taser torch with you.
