Woman jumps from second floor to escape home invaders
Two intruders suspected of planning to rape her.
A Helderkruin resident, Heidi Labuschagne, is in a serious condition in Life Flora Clinic after she jumped from the second storey of her home to escape two home invaders.
According to one source Labuschagne was relaxing at her home in the Sunny Rock Estate on Watson Street on Friday 23 February, when she was surprised by two male intruders in the house. After first severely assaulting her they tried to take her upstairs to the bedroom. In order to escape the nightmare of a potential rape, she jumped from the second floor.
