Armed Response

“Vehicle” and “theft” in KZN go hand in hand and happen just as often as Durbanites will braai and watch the rugby.
Last week yet another hijacking occurred in Johannesburg in the Blairgowrie suburb.
In this video you can see a group of hijackers exiting their vehicle in an attempt to steal the chosen victim’s car. The hijacking attempt was left unsuccessful in the eyes of the criminals but rather a success in the eyes of the public.
The quick thinking motorist acted swiftly by shifting the gear stick into reverse and ramming into the hijacker’s vehicle which was blocking the road in order to stop the victim from getting past.
Seeing that Berea in Durban is at the top of the list, “The worst hijacking areas in South Africa in 2017”, we thought it would be best to give our readers a refresh on how to avoid being hijacked and how to survive a hijacking.
