Early this morning, Emilio Mannuel’s BMW R 1250 GS Exclusive motorcycle was stolen, and he is asking the public for their help in returning it.

Emilio told the Middelburg Observer that the incident took place between 01:30 – 02:00 at his home on Gamka Street, Aerorand.

According to his partner, who witnessed the event transpire, four men derailed his front gate before sliding it open and then lifting it off the entire rail.

The motorbike is black with gold highlights and does not have licence plates. A permit was attached but was most likely ripped off.
