A farm attack occurred around 21:00, 23 August 2023, on a farm in Klein Sandfontein, Caledon area, Western Cape province.
Three unknown men gained access to a house through a dog door at the back door whereupon the house owner, an elderly lady was assaulted and seriously injured.
The suspects fled with 3 flat screen televisions in the direction of the N2.
Help arrived on scene very quickly where they began tracing the suspects and found a large television near the N2. Specialize Agri Protection’s tracking dogs and Afriform Louerens provided assistance with drones and many community members from the area.
