On the 28th June 2004, there was a break in, at Harry Galuan, Vorna Valley.

A phone call was received from one of the workers inside a complex, in Vorna Valley stating that there were 3 men busy loading stolen goods from one of the units. Reaction officers responded, before they got to site, they saw a white Toyota Hilux bakkie with 3 white men in the vehicle coming out from the complex with the goods on the back of the bakkie. They chased them but were unable to catch up to them. There were no registration plates and they were driving extremely fast. There was no forced entry at the unit. The sliding door was found slightly open. The following items were reported stolen, 500 x DVD’s, 2 x TV’s, 2 x VCR’s, duvet covers, pillowcases, a camera, a computer and a Hi-Fi.

Some information, On Monday night 23 June for men tried to break into my property. We have 3 medium size dogs and fortunately they were sleeping inside due to it being winter and they alerted us to the presence of the intruders. When I looked out the window I saw two men, one outside the gate and the other one getting into the property. When I went down stair, I saw two other men standing at our sliding door. When they saw me they ran. The strange thing is that this happened at 5am in the morning. I stay in Noordwyk and there is a lot of house construction going on.
I see in your suggestion you mention automating you gate. A word of advice, to all Automated gate owners, make sure that when your gate is closed that there is a mechanism that prevents the gate from being lifted on the end far form the motor. I have an electric gate and electric fencing and this is how they got into my property, by simply lifting the gate off the rail and moving it back enough to get in.
Kind regards and if we can be of assistance, please don't hesitate to contact.
