Saturday morning saw the aftermath of the storms Johannesburg experienced, which unfortunately left hundreds of fish out of the water and on the embankments. CPF Impala Park noticed the problem and called out to the community to help gather the fish to help save the environment. Many community members, including children, helped to get the stranded fish into the buckets. Some of the children even went with the adults to the middle dam (behind the NG Church) where the washed-out fish were relocated to. In total there were more than 100 fish, mostly catfish (or barbels as they are better known as). “The dam behind the NG Church does not flow to any other dam in the area, which means that the re-located fish are safe in this dam and won’t be taken by the stream again,” CPF representative Denise Curry said. tame TIMES would like to say well done to all involved.

THE HAWKS SEIZE DRUGS WORTH R75 MILLION
The Hawks have smashed a massive drug distribution syndicate in Kempton Park seizing narcotics worth R75 million. Officers pounced on a storage facility on Wednesday morning (27 November) and arrested two Tanzanian nationals who were allegedly distributing the drugs. The narcotics included 25kg of heroine, 15kg of cocaine and 15kg of tik. Hawks spokesman Paul Ramaloko described this as one of the biggest successes in recent history. He said officials are now “closing in on the big shots”.
