A routine day turned into a real-life action movie on Louis Botha Avenue in Bramley, Johannesburg, after a man was targeted by ruthless thugs — but this time, the victim refused to go quietly.
According to witnesses, the suspects swooped in and robbed the man in broad daylight. Instead of freezing in fear, the victim grabbed a stone and hurled it at the getaway car, screaming for help as loud as he could. His bravery paid off — Metro Police officers were nearby, heard the commotion, and immediately jumped into action.
What followed was a high-speed chase through the northern suburbs, with the tsotsis desperately trying to escape. Their run didn’t last long. The suspects were finally cornered and arrested in Savoy, where officers recovered a stash of stolen mobile phones, believed to be taken from multiple victims.
Residents praised the victim’s courage and the quick response by Metro Police, saying the arrest sends a strong message to criminals who think they can terrorise communities without consequences.
