0h05 Gunshots? reported in Valley Road close to Kronendal Retirement Village, person seen running in open space alongside KRV. SSP's and SAPS respond. Lots of running about but it boils down to........Attempted TOV in Royland Crescent, oh54 two suspects detained in a white City Golf CA837903 and a further three in a grey bakkie.

03h19 Trespassers spotted on property at # Forest Hill, Longkloof.

04h32 White Nissan Sani CA? behaving suspiciously in Beach Estate. The following report from Northshore Patrol: “We sighted what appeared to be a suspicious vehicle at around 04h00 this morning in Northshore Sector. The vehicle, driven by a coloured man( could not tell age but appeared to be mid twenties with a moustache) wearing a “hoodie” was a white Nissan Sani with uprated suspension and non- standard mag wheels( vehicle although old was in reasonable condition). We could not get the registration number but it had a CA reg. number. This vehicle travelled up Albert Road and kept shooting off up side streets, all of which were dead- ends such as Clyde Road. When this individual realised that we were following him, he appeared to be spooked.

Before our interception, we drove down Albert road toward the beach. After we lost him, we passed a house in Albert road who’s alarm had activated. We suspect that this was a driver with accomplices that he had dropped off and he subsequently collected after we lost him.”
