Albasini Street intersects with Reyger Street where an armed house robbery took place on 12 October. The possibility that this area is being targeted can not be excluded and residents are urged to be extra vigilant.
• Be aware of strangers hanging around in the street.
• If you suspect you’re being followed, drive past your house to establish whether you are indeed being followed and get to a safe place, such as a fuel station, as soon as possible.
