Around 12h40 this afternoon, TP02 and RV02 responded on information of a farm attack just outside Makwassie on the Wesselsbron Road. It was reported that an active shooter was still present on the premises.
Upon arrival, TP02 met with local community members who transported the patient towards Makwassie in an attempt to get the man to medical personnel at soonest.
It was found that the husband was shot twice as he confronted the robbers. They were then tied up with cable ties for the remainder of the robbery.
The man was provided with Advanced Life Support care and then transported to a private hospital in Klerksdorp under escort.
The Anncron Hospital emergency room staff were ready and waiting upon our arrival. Truly a Hospital that cares for their patients and treat them with dignity and respect!
The wife was treated for minor injuries and severe shock. Great response by the local farming community who had all roads closed off.
Their work with the local security companies and the SAPS saw the arrest of 3 of the robbers within an hour.
