A couple sitting in their vehicle outside the man\u2019s Buhle Park Phase Three home, last Friday, became the victims of hijackers at about 10.45pm.<\/p>\n
While sitting in the car they were allegedly approached by two men, carrying firearms.<\/p>
They pointed their firearms at the couple and ordered them to get out of the vehicle.<\/p>\n
\u201cThey then robbed the couple of their two cellphones and made off in the couple\u2019s vehicle, a maroon Mazda 323, valued at R25 000,\u201d said Const Daphney Phooko, communications officer for the Elsburg SAPS.<\/p>
The victims contacted the SAPS and the vehicle was later tracked to a house in Ivory Park Extension 15, in Tembisa, in the early hours of last Saturday morning.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe police received information from tracking company personnel and, upon arrival at the address given, they found a 38-year-old man inside the vehicle, removing the speakers,\u201d said Phooko.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe man was arrested and detained at the Ivory Park Police Station.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe is due to appear in the Tembisa Magistrates Court soon, on a charge of possession of a hijacked motor vehicle.\u201d<\/p>\n
