Metrorail in the Western Cape says it is currently
reassessing the deployment of security personals at train stations.
This is after an attempted robbery where shots were fired
between Eerste River and Lyndock station which left one person injured.
Metrorail’s Riana Scott says”police are investigating the
matter and that additional security is being added on the northern route.
Scott says our service personnel now will work very close
with the police to conduct regular crime prevention actions. These will include search and fissure operations to confiscate danger weapons.
Scott added that “we also appeal to our communities to
report all incidents so the police can accurately gage the need for additional
resources”.
We are very happy to report there were fifteen recent
arrests in several instances where commuters’ possessions were retrieved and
returned.
They declined to make cases and to press charges. We really
ask the people whatever incident please report it” Scott added.
