TLB stolen, bakkie hijacked hours apart in Umlazi
A construction company in Umlazi fell victim to two brazen crimes within hours, losing both a TLB (JCB Front End Loader) and a Toyota Hilux bakkie in separate incidents.
The TLB, registered as NJ 65391, was stolen overnight on Monday by unknown suspects. When a company manager arrived on Tuesday morning around 09h00 to investigate, he was confronted by three armed men.
The suspects held him at gunpoint, robbed him of his valuables, and made off with the company’s Toyota Hilux bakkie (NJ 550).
The owner has put up a reward for any information leading to the recovery of the stolen vehicles.
Anyone with details is urged to contact Reaction Unit South Africa (RUSA) at 086 123 4333. All information will be handled confidentially.
