WARNING: This is Version 1 of my old archive, so Photos will NOT work and many links will NOT work. But you can find articles by searching on the Titles. There is a lot of information in this archive. Use the SEARCH BAR at the top right. Prior to December 2012; I was a pro-Christian type of Conservative. I was unaware of the mass of Jewish lies in history, especially the lies regarding WW2 and Hitler. So in here you will find pro-Jewish and pro-Israel material. I was definitely WRONG about the Boeremag and Janusz Walus. They were for real.

As police reached the gate to the townhouse complex, the five men were fleeing in their own vehicle. A shoot-out with the police ensued.

One of the alleged robbers was critically injured and the other four were arrested.

Stolen property from the home which the men had allegedly robbed was recovered as well as four stolen handguns.

The residents who had been robbed were unharmed.

The four men were due to appear in the Randburg Magistrate’s Court on Monday, while the fifth was taken to hospital.

Opperman said the group of men would be “profiled” as police suspect they may be responsible for a several house robberies in the Honeydew, Sandton and Fourways areas. – Sapa
