21h30 Bokke Guards spot two suspects on the pipetrack in dark clothing.This may be connected to the 21h26 incident. The following report from BokkeJustin……………..At 21h30 on wed night Bokke guards radioed two intruders coming from 11 Fynbos - sighted on their patrol. These two bolted down Fynbos - I was just in time to see them sprinting across Blue Valley and chased them by car where we came within a few metres of them - before they fled in a wild panic into the vacant land just below Fynbos on the Meadows side. Turns out there is a clear hole cut the fence just below the gate onto the pipetrack and they must have fled through that, not without some spirited encouragement from the residents in that area, one way or another. I doubt those particular two will venture this way soon again - but best to be aware and to call any suspicious activity immediately. SAPS were on the scene remarkably quickly and then moved over too the Hughenden side to monitor further. Shortly before this Watchcon reported a break-in in Meadows, not sure which street exactly (River Walk. Ed). In fact we were responding to that issue at the time of the incident mentioned above. I am not sure if they were connected but very likely they are in my opinion - they were very much on the run. Well done to the guards for calling this promptly.
