TWO vehicles hijacked on Queen Nandi Drive and the N2 were recovered in separate incidents by SAPS, Marshall Security’s Special Operations Team and a tracking company.

The first vehicle, an Isuzu bakkie hijacked on Queen Nandi Drive, was recovered just hours later in KwaMashu.

“The vehicle was hijacked on December 3. The team proceeded to the vehicle’s last known location and, with the assistance of the KwaMashu SAPS Trio Crime Unit, Newlands East SAPS, and Matrix Tracking ground team, successfully recovered the vehicle abandoned in KwaMashu A Section.

“The vehicle was subsequently transported to Newlands East police station for further processing,” explained Marshall Security spokesperson Tyron Powell.

A second vehicle, also an Isuzu bakkie, was hijacked on Wednesday, January 8 on the N2 and was recovered abandoned near an informal settlement.

“The team swiftly traced the vehicle to Sea Cow Lake, where it was found abandoned with the assistance of Greenwood Park SAPS Trio Crimes and Cartrack ground team. Unfortunately, three spare tyres from the vehicle were reported stolen before the recovery,” Powell said.

No arrests were made in either incident.
