Building a ‘bridge of friendship’
HEILIE COMBRINCK
P
olice in Uitenhage want to send out a stern warning to vehicle owners to be more alert and attentive when locking their vehicles and also to make sure that there are no items left in them.
“A number of incidents have been reported concerning the usage of jamming devices (remote control device) to gain access to vehicles in the Uitenhage area,” said W/O Gerda Swart, Uitenhage police spokesperson. Apparently suspects are using remote control devices to override the remote vehicle security system. “This enables them to gain access to the vehicle and take valuable items that were left inside the vehicle. Owners are once again requested to double check and ensure that the vehicle is locked before leaving it. “It is especially applicable when you cannot hear the clicking sound or see the head lights flashing when locking the vehicle.” It should also be second nature to all vehicle owners or passengers not to leave any visible items especially valuable and expensive items such as laptops, i-pads, computer equipment or cellphones in vehicles. “Do not leave items like a firearm or large amounts of cash in the glove compartment or anywhere else in the vehicle. “It is against the law to leave your firearm in a vehicle,” said W/O Swart.
