embers of a local private security company recently had to stop a suspected drunk driver from causing any further damage to her vehicle and anyone else around her, following an accident in Sienna Drive, Burgundy Estate. The driver of the Nissan vehicle apparently failed to stop, according to the security company District Watch. Two of their members who were dispatched to the scene, intervened. “It was reported that a resident had left a complex and then drove straight into the wall of another complex. Upon arrival at the scene, the members noticed that the female driver was under the influence of alcohol and a neighbour also informed them that she was on other medication too. “She was determined to leave the scene, but the members managed to talk her out of it,” reads part of a report on the security company’s social media page. According to the report the driver started her car again and this time reversed at a speed, narrowly missing another wall. “She went over a pavement and hit a tree, causing damage to her vehicle. She put the car into drive and pulled away. The members managed to stop her and removed her from the vehicle,” the report reads further. The woman was taken away by her ex-husband, the security company says. A towing company removed her vehicle. The accident occurred on Saturday 5 December. Gawie Venter, sales and marketing manager at the District Group, told TygerBurger that the police had been contacted. “But they replied that they could not assist as they were busy with another crime inci-

Capt Kevin Williams, spokesperson for the Parow police, was approached for comment but had not responded by the time of going to print. Several people reacted to the news of the accident, many saying that the driver could have endangered other lives. “Why not call the police? Driving under the influence of anything is a crime. She could have injured or killed someone in the process,” one person reacted to the post. “So what happens now to all that property damaged and the fact that she was driving under the influence?” another asked. Another person wrote: “Large numbers of people walk in the estate with their dogs as well. What if she had knocked someone over? She should have been handed over to the police.” One of the property owners mentioned that he was nearly injured when the motorist slammed into his wall. He claims he was behind the wall at the time of the incident. TygerBurger approached him for comment, however he declined citing personal and legal reasons.

Die polisie het vroeër vandeesmaand ’n stalletjie by die Edgemead-sentrum opgerig waar hulle bewusmaking geskep het oor geslagsgeweld. Dit het deel gevorm van die polisie se 16 Dae van Aktivisme vir Geen Geweld teen Vroue en Kinders. AO Jacques Mostert, polisiewoordvoerder, het lede van die publiek wat slagoffers is van geweld ingelig oor hoe om hulp te kry. Pamflette is ook uitgedeel.
