Three people were attacked on their property outside Machadodorp on Friday, March 24.

Lyzette (51), Danie (80), and Gesina (77) heard the dogs barking for the second night in a row and two of the family members armed with handguns, went outside to investigate. Immediately after they left the house, an unknown number of suspects fired upon them. The victims shot back at the suspect who fled on foot.

Once back in the house, the police and community security were alerted. No arrests have been made, and the police continue with the investigation.

Comment: Take note of unusual behavior from your dogs and keep an eye out for places/ signs that may indicate suspects have been watching the property, i.e., disturbed/ flattened vegetation, wrappings, cigarette butts, etc. be careful of being drawn out of your house by lights or water that is turned off or fires that are lit.
