Wheels stolen from vehicle in Dennesig
According to Lenie De Jager from Helen Joseph Street, Dennesig, the thieves gained access to her premises last night by lifting the gate from its rail.
The thieves then stole the four wheels from a light-motor-vehicle that was parked in the front of the yard after removing paving bricks from the driveway and setting the vehicle upon them.
The criminals also went on to steal a selection of tools, diesel cans full of diesel and a fire extinguisher from the bin of a work vehicle.
'At no point were we awoken, despite having dogs on the property,' Ms De Jager told the Middelburg Observer.
She estimated the value of the wheels at R20 000 and the stolen equipment at roughly R15 000.
A case had been opened at the Middelburg Police Station.
