Crime Report – The Updated World

A Yango driver was left shaken after being ambushed and robbed in Wanaheda during the early hours of Saturday morning.

Police confirmed that the 30-year-old victim was driving from Khomasdal towards Luxury Hill when a white Toyota Land Cruiser began trailing him. At the four-way stop of Reverend BG Karuera and Okarundu streets, the driver found himself surrounded as two vehicles blocked him from the front and the Land Cruiser closed in from behind.

About six men reportedly climbed out of the vehicles. One of them aimed a gun at the driver and forced him off the road. The group then broke the back window of his car before stripping it of parts and valuables.

The suspects fled with a car battery, two side mirrors, the car keys, a cellphone, and N$800 in cash.

Police say no arrests have been made so far, and investigations are continuing
