A farm attack took place on 26 June 2020, at 08:30 along the Percy Fyfe road outside Polokwane, in the Limpopo province of South Africa. The owner David Osborn was attacked and stabbed by seven heavily armed attackers. Both Osborn and a visiting friend were robbed of their firearms.

The home was ransacked and cash and another firearm, a rifle, was robbed. The visiting friend then opened fire on the fleeing attackers with a shotgun that was in his vehicle.

The getaway vehicle weas found nearby by local farmers after the attackers abandoned it and fled on foot. There was blood in the vehicle and so it is presumed that at least one attacker is wounded.

There is no other information available at this stage.
