"PamaChina" —A New Hotspot For Vehicle and Valuables Theft
Motorists using High Glen Road during the evening are urged to be cautious when approaching the Crowborough Road intersection, popularly known as “PamaChina”.
There is an influx in the number of cases involving vehicle and valuables theft at that intersection between 19:00 and 23:00.
Criminals take advantage of cars slowing down due to speed bumps and pounce on unsuspecting motorists.
They (criminals) break vehicle windows using sharp objects and take valuables and in worst cases, scare drivers with weapons leading to vehicle theft.
Last night alone, two separate cases which occurred within an hour, were reported at Marimba Police Station.
Motorists are also urged to be cautious of a white Toyota Hiace without registration number at that intersection, as it is believed to be involved in the syndicate.
Motorists are also urged to ensure that windows are closed when approaching that intersection.
