Members of Temba SAPS interacted with the commuters at Kopanong taxi rank in Hammanskraal while distributing crime prevention tips pamphlets to members of the community earlier today.
Sergeant Herman Moremi of Corporate communications SAPS in Temba said more than 480 pamphlets were distributed around the taxi rank with hints for robberies, sexual offences, domestic violence, tampering with a crime scene and use of drugs.
“Members of the community were also urged to be vigilant while shopping, to avoid false prophecy from unknown people who pretend to be prophets, not to withdraw large amounts of money from the bank, to prevent lifts instead use public transport like buses and taxis,” he said.
To give the police information about any suspicious activities happening around their villages, community members should call numbers on the pamphlets or dialling the crime stop line 08600 10111 or 112 on any cellphone network.
