Vehicle hijacked in KwaNobuhle

A Toyota Corolla was hijacked at the Sinxo Crescent and Siwasa Street intersection in KwaNobuhle, Uitenhage, on Wednesday night.

Police spokesman Sergeant Majola Nkohli said the incident happened at about 8:30pm when a 36-year-old woman was dropping three relatives at their home.

“The car was stationary in the street with the four occupants inside the car talking. Three men then approached the car and opened the driver’s and passengers’ doors. One of the men had a firearm and demanded that all the occupants get out of the car,” he said.

“The occupants complied and the suspects sped off in the car. No one was injured and no shots were fired.”

The case was handed over to the specialist anti-hijacking task team to investigate.
