Provincial police spokesperson, Lieutenant Colonel Amanda Funani said police reports indicate that the teenagers were driving from Bataviya’s home in Brits, going to school in Hartbeesportdam when the car they were travelling in was bumped from behind by a maroon Audi A3, thus forcing it to stop.
“Allegedly, two armed men came out of the Audi A3 and ordered the cousins to get into a white Volkswagen Polo GTI that was driving behind the Audi A3,” Funani said.
“The suspects also got into the VW Polo GTI and fled the scene with the victims inside. The victims’ Mercedes Benz and the Audi A3 were found at the scene.”
She said police are appealing to anyone who may have information that can assist in the ongoing investigations to contact the Brits station commander, Brigadier Ellen Emmanuel on 082 447 7447.
