Pocket Yorkshire Terrior

Location: Westrand
Crime Date: 15 July 2010
Reported Date: 29 July 2010

Complex next door to school, maid left gate open and a 3 year old male pocket size Yorkshire terrior got out. His name is Tigger.

He was last seen running around playing at the park opposite the school. His owner Kirsty got home to find him gone. She walked the streets, knocked on every door put posters up everywhere and even asked the school to announce over the intercom if any one of the kids saw the dog. She went to the shelters etc.

To-date she has still not found him. she is devastated. Someone picking up kids or a child at the school has picked him up and decided to keep him. He is not neuted and she is appealing to whoever took him to please return him. She did ask kids and some of the kids said they did see him. She has searched the grounds of the school and has looked on all the main and side roads. This is her baby.

She is offering a reward. Her number is 0829283297. I am doing this on behalf of her because she does not have access to the internet.

White Rhino killed by poachers

Location: Krugersdorp
Crime Date: 14 July 2010
Reported Date: 27 July 2010

The Krugersdorp Game Reserve tragically lost its last adult White Rhino to poachers on 14 July 2010. The female rhino was darted from an unmarked helicopter and when she had succumbed to the effects of the drugs her horn was removed using a chainsaw.

The rhino bled to death leaving her eight month old male calf to wander off into the game reserve alone. The calf was located the next day and, accompanied by a wildlife veterinarian, the NSPCA Wildlife Unit helped the Krugersdorp Game Reserve manager to successfully tranquilise and move the young rhino into the safety of a boma on the property.

The Krugersdorp Game Reserve decided that for the rhino calf's safety and future wellbeing that the best decision was to move him to the Rhino and Lion Park in Kromdraai. The Rhino and Lion Park is close by and currently has other orphaned rhino calves of similar age.

Tourists raped in Eastern Cape - Addo

Location: Addo
Crime Date: 25 July 2010
Reported Date: 26 July 2010

Two foreign nationals were raped in two separate incidents in the Eastern Cape, police said on Sunday.

A 15-year-old German girl was raped, allegedly by two armed men who broke into a chalet she was sharing with her 14-year-old brother at a bed and breakfast facility in Addo, said Captain Ernest Sigobe.

"The men allegedly gained entry by breaking the back window at 6am yesterday [Saturday]."

The two men allegedly raped the teenager while her brother watched helplessly.

They then ransacked the chalet and stole a camera and other personal belongings, Sigobe said.

Their parents were sleeping in another bed and breakfast nearby.

In the second incident, a 27-year-old man was arrested after he allegedly raped a 22-year-old woman from the Netherlands early on Saturday morning.

The woman has been doing voluntary work in Stormsriver since 15 July.

She was out walking when she was raped at around 6am.

The man is expected to appear in court soon.

Boboons listen for car alarms

Location: CAPE TOWN
Crime Date: 18 July 2010
Reported Date: 23 July 2010

Cape Town - Baboons on the Cape Peninsula have long known how to open the doors of tourists' cars in search of food.

But now they listen for the "tweet tweet" of remote door locking before deciding whether to bother, a Cape Town city official said on Wednesday.

The city's manager for destination development, Theuns Vivian, was speaking following a media briefing at which he said the municipality was trying to get national government to approve an official baboon warning sign.

"People stop their vehicles, and the vehicles get damaged," he said.

"Or they get out of their vehicles, and these baboons are highly intelligent animals. They're waiting for the sound of the car alarm.

"If they don't hear the 'tweet tweet' they make for the door.

"So the tourists get out of the vehicle, they stand amazed at the vista and the view, and the baboons go for the door, and say, 'well, that door's not locked'.

"They are so intelligent: they wait for the noise of the alarm system. So we need to educate our tourists."

Vivian said the city had asked the national department of transport to add a baboon warning sign to its menagerie of official road signs.

He said the city wanted a triangle with a red rim carrying a picture of a baboon, similar to those showing kudu, elephant, warthog and hippo.

"We're making proposals to national government to include it in the road ordinances so that we can warn people when there are baboons crossing the road... or in the area," he said.

"And also to ask people to act responsibly.

"We've put up [other] signs to warn them that these are dangerous animals, and you still have people trying to pose for a photograph next to a baboon with fangs the size of a cheetah's."

'Informative' signs

There had been complaints about drivers speeding through troops of baboons.

Baboons also got into cars and 'stole' food, cameras and other valuables.

Vivian said that currently the only warning triangle the city could put up was one carrying an exclamation mark, and the word "baboons" underneath it.

Existing green-and-white "informative" signs warning people abut baboons were not enough.

These could by law be set up only some distance from the road edge, where they did not obstruct the view or the driver's attention.

The council wanted the warnings as a road sign, on the verge of the road.

He said Cape Town was trying to educate tourists about baboons both through signage, and through "dos and don'ts" included on maps and in visitor guides.

"We value our baboons, and we value our tourists. We'd like to have a nice symbiosis."

Environmentalists say the territory available to baboons on the peninsula has shrunk with the expansion of the urban edge.

Residents of some suburbs regularly report incursions of the primates into built-up areas.

Nokia England Yearly Promotion

Location: Knysna
Crime Date: 21 July 2010
Reported Date: 22 July 2010

I was sent an sms stating that my cell number has been chosen as winning number for the Nokia England Yearly Promotion with winning amount of R600 000. Being a wake up and curious person I phoned the contact number; 0730538971 and spoke to a lady called Vanessa Griers. She congratulated me and took all my details and then said I should purchase 5 x R180 MTN vouchers, phone her with the voucher numbers and the money transfer would take place.

Now that has SCAM written all over it. What I would like to know however is what is being done about these people sitting and scamming innocent people out of their hard earned money.

Honestly I've never heard of any competion that you have to pay in to claim your prize.

Trespasser found in our office building

Location: CAPE TOWN
Crime Date: 22 July 2010
Reported Date: 22 July 2010

To get into our office block one needs a tag. But......often when you tag yourself in and someone is behind you, one normally keep the door open for the person who also want to get in. And being a big company you never know if this person work here or not.

Well turns out this guy followed someone in and was found sitting at a table by the kitchen. When they asked him who he is and what he is doing here he replied and said that he is looking for a "DRIVERS JOB"....

Ai Ai Ai.........

Shootout at Mandela's House

Location: JOHANNESBURG
Crime Date: 18 July 2010
Reported Date: 22 July 2010

Eyewitness News has learnt of a shootout at Zindzi Mandela's house in Athol on Sunday evening but no official case has been opened and police are refusing to release any details.

Eyewitness News understands that three men armed with handguns and an R5 rifle held up Madiba's relatives in Zindzi's driveway in Athol at 6.30pm on Sunday evening.

A bodyguard who was driving them back from the elderly statesman's birthday party opened fire and may have shot one of the suspects in the leg. The trio fled in a black vehicle.

A car fitting the description and peppered with bullet holes matching the weapons was recovered by the West Rand Dog Unit in Honeydew the same evening.

Curiously, eyewitnesses said men in suits, believed to be from the police's VIP Unit, arrived at the Athol house and removed bullet casings from the driveway and then vanished.

Despite officers from several stations responding to the shooting, the VIP Unit undertook to open a case but that has not yet happened.

Police spokespeople have been avoiding queries from Eyewitness News since Monday and are still yet to reveal any details, only saying an incident did occur.
