Cape Town – Browns Farm residents in Philippi took the law into their own hands, allegedly setting alight two men accused of being part of an ambush where an off-duty police officer was shot in his home.
"Shots were discharged at the police officer during the altercation and he was wounded in the leg. He was admitted to hospital. No one has been arrested at this stage,” said Traut. “Residents are tired of the armed robberies and house break-ins committed by Amaphela. The Avanzas would usually commit the break-ins in the morning, targeting households where everyone is at work and at school. Now we are in lockdown you would expect such incidents not to happen.
