Stolen Land Cruiser ends up in Limpopo River after kidnapping on farm
The battery and spare wheel were missing when the car was pulled out of the water
A kidnapping occurred on a farm in Limpopo on Saturday, leading to the victim being left at another farm and the stolen Toyota Land Cruiser ending up in the Limpopo River. Police have initiated an investigation into the incident. According to Colonel Malesela Ledwaba, the victim was working on the farm when he was approached by four armed suspects.
The suspects forced the victim into the back of a white Toyota Land Cruiser and drove away. The victim was then taken to a loading area where he was forced to cover his face before the suspects fled with him in the vehicle. The victim was later dropped off at a farm near the Limpopo River, while the suspects abandoned the vehicle in the middle of the river.
The battery and spare wheel were subsequently missing from the vehicle. Police are urging anyone with information to contact Sergeant Manyaga Freddie or the nearest police station through the #CrimeStop or #MySAPSApp numbers.
