CCTV footage posted on South Africa Live’s Facebook Page last Tuesday, caused quite a stir amongst South Africans. It revealed the method of a group of thieves that specialize in stealing spare wheels from bakkies. The video shows just how quickly this group operates, with one suspect standing watch, another emerging to remove the tyre and a third man rolling the tyre into their Toyota Quantum minibus.
The post lead outraged South Africans to recall incidents in which their own vehicles tyres had been stolen, with one Facebook user commenting “I remember when they stole my Bantam spare wheel about 6 years ago, I struggled to get another and when I finally got it, it was so expensive.”
