From a resident: last 3 beach attacks have occured at 16h07, 16h10 and 16h59 (mon/thu/sun). There have been various descriptions but you would think by now SAPS would alert us to whether it is one or many gangs and produce some detailed description and/or identikit.
17h42 ## Mountain St. Bravo intruder wearing a beige cap striped top and blue jeans, on premises takes off toward Daphne and the reeds? Good response by SSP’s and HBNW. Nothing further.

To Decal Or Not To Decal
Any opinions? Please send them to bonneville@absamail.co.za (or add comment) and I will add them here. Read lower down for some insight.
This from an active patroller:
As newcomers and now active members of the HBNW.....patrolling again this afternoon - we found your comments on Decals or No Decals very relevant and interesting. However has it sparked any comment? We would have thought this was a very serious issue and one which the HBNW would give some direction on?
From VJ: To me the decal issue is a 50/50. With decals you do run the risk of being targetted, but at least they show SAPS, other HBNW as well as the Armed Response units what you are doing. Maybe without them, we'd all be following each other around (like we still do with the newspaper delivery bakkie)? Personally, i dont use them because a) i can never find them and b) they dont stick on a land rover.
JP: I also won't use decals - for one thing I would feel like a mobile target. Second reason is most of the time I am of service in NW is either on response, or just going about normal daily life - to shops or whatever - carrying my radio. More and more NW is just for citizens at all times - not just on patrols. A second question is when to show ones radio. In a shop, in a restaurant, on the beach? Generally I think the sight of radios is a good crime deterrent (eg who would rob Darios with several radios evident?!), but suggest discretion if you walk into an armed robbery, or are likely to be mugged for it . . .
Another patroller writes: I think that the use of the decals gives warning to criminals, and all they simply do is wait till your car has passed and continue, however if you just seem to be 'driving' by they will not feel threatend by a normal civilian and will continue in the act, and hopefully get caught. From a personal safety point of view, Hout Bay is a small village and NW members, especailly woman put themselves at risk, that they may be recognised and possibly targeted in the future
BL says: I feel the decals are a good idea, for several reasons:
- they show people with possible criminal intent that they are being watched. Even if you only drive by it will make them feel a touch uneasy about committing a crime and they may just move on
- it is a good pr exercise in the neighbourhood and may make others sign up as well
- it explains the slow pace of the vehicle
- I honestly don't think displaying a decal will make the car a target - I'm sure the word is out among the dishonest that there is an efficient communication network out there, so attacking a HBNW-decalled car is not a good idea

Wednesday Incidents and Taxi Violence Updated
02h59 # Gordon Rd. Two Bravo males attack and rob a lady returning home. No serious injuries. Seems the criminals may have been on the premises.
Early morning incident in Scott: Last night in the early hours this morning, D M reported on channel two that his fence wire had been cut and it apparently was a definite attempt to get in. His dogs awakened him during the high wind and the perps ran off. His house is up on the top of Andrews / Marais Road .
SAPS pick up two known house-breakers in the area but no evidence to link them to the Gordon Rd incident.
03h31 From Camps Bay Watch. Armed robbery in Bakoven around midnight. Two suspects, one reported wearing a red/orange cap and black shirt the other green shirt and blue cap. Thought to be heading toward Hout Bay on foot?
06h16 From SAPS. Taxi violence. Stones being thrown at motorists close to IY.
09h00 Various incidents during the day around Taxi violence. At times, Main Rd. had to be closed and traffic diverted via Valley Rd. More significant than the mindless taxi owners was the abuse volunteer HBNW members had to endure at the mouths of Hout Bay residents. Even more disappointing was the abuse hurled at members by members of the Fire Service!
13h00 From a resident TOOV -window smashed - only parked for 15 min in front Storms Rest in Hughenden road Suspects possibly 3 very young Bravo males strolling down Hughenden road from IY.

To Decal Or Not To Decal
For a long time now I’ve not put decals or any other NW identification on my vehicle when I’m on NW duty. An event some time ago in Constantia where a SSP armed response officer was shot and a large restaurant was robbed 20 minutes later had me thinking rightly or wrongly, that the mysterious shooting of the AR officer may have been a deliberate diversion created to open a window for the later robbery.
Even if the events were not linked, the shooting of an AR officer or an on duty NW patroller will inevitably draw an immediate response from SAPS, all SSP’s and NW patrollers and concentrate them all in one place allowing criminals space to hit and run elsewhere.
I notice Constantia NW patrollers with decals and flashing orange lights and the message it sends to criminals is clear. Simply duck out of sight until the vehicle has passed and get on with crime as they are on a loop and will only return once the loop is complete. At night criminals can see these vehicles even before they come around the bend!
A recent robbery up country saw two NW members shot when (it is thought) they were seen to be using radios to report the robbery or responding to the robbery using a radio. These are not the confirmed facts but I think the point is, keep a low profile and you may be much safer. After many patrols and bumping into regular baddies, the baddies get to know the patrollers. Don’t for one moment think a “Tikop” is or ever will be scared by a NW patroller.
From a resident: Oh so true – when we were doing ‘block watch’ in Randburg [this was about 25 years ago!!!], the cops first asked us to use magnetic signs – after one car was specially targeted to get the radio [we used a police radio for duty] they made two changes: 1 – no signs 2 – report in every half hour or they came to look for you.

Friday Incidents
03h31 # Meadows Close report that intruders attempted to enter the property via the perimiter fence. SAPS and SSP’s attend.
03h51 Watchcon. Two thieves reported inside ##Penzance Ave . One wearing a red hoodie and the other a black hoodie. Both armed with ‘butchers’ knives. SAPS respond.
04h07 ### Victoria Ave. Resident reports someone attempting to open the kitchen door. SAPS attend.
21h08 ADT. Beach mugging. Two persons taking a walk on the beach close to the Disa River robbed at knifepoint. Muggers are 3 Bravo males, one in khaki ¾ shorts and a white? shirt with horizontal? stripes, last seen heading into the dunes. SSP’s SAPS and HBNW respond. 21h32 Victims decline to lay charges so all stand down. This serious crime will not be recorded at SAPS so it never happened, how cool is that!
HBNW members are champing at the bit to set up and detain these thugs but as we are continually reminded that we are eyes and ears only so we have to wait for SAPS to do something. There is a definite pattern emerging here starting with, 9pm, warm evening, beach, knives, Bravo males, regular, multiple and innocent victims. I suppose it will take a murder before any preemptive action is taken. Once there has been a murder these thugs will avoid the area for a long time and follow up operations would be fruitless. The time to act is now.
23h13 Known thief (Llewellyn Thomas) disturbed while operating in the heights area, Mesfort Close. Llewellyn dropped a ladder while running away from SAPS?
