Klerksdorp Rekord, Klerksdorp - Twee Klerksdorpers het ‘n noue ontkoming gehad in ‘n botsing met ‘n ambulans in Platanlaan.
Die ambulans het glo oor ‘n stopstraat by Smitstraat gejaag en reg voor Yvonne Weideman se motor beland op Sondag 24 Maart. Sy en ‘n vriendin was onderweg terug van die fliek af net voor 20:00 en het in Platanlaan gery. “Dit was so onverwags. Ek het glad nie gedink ‘n ambulans sal net so voor aankomende verkeer injaag nie. Hy moes teen ‘n helse spoed gery het. Ek is net dankbaar ons is veilig,’’ het sy aan Klerksdorp Rekord gesê.
Court suspends refuse contract
Klerksdorp Record, Klerksdorp - The Matlosana Municipality currently has no service provider to carry out refuse removal and is back to doing it themselves.
Residents are glad that refuse that has been piling up for the last weeks, are being removed. “Back in the day, the Matlosana Municipality had a fleet of 32 refuse removal trucks. Now only about six or seven are in use, and while they are certainly capable of providing the service, one can only think of the reasons why they always want to appoint a service provider from outside,’’ said Cllr Johannes le Grange, DA Caucus Leader.
Another shooting in Orkney
Klerksdorp Record, Orkney - In another shooting in town, a man was gunned down while walking on a sidewalk near a popular fast food restaurant and the busy taxi terminus.
The shooting was reported just after 19:00 on Saturday March 23.
A woman who stays in Charlotte Maxeke Street near where the murder happened told Klerksdorp Record it sounded like fireworks exploding on New Year’s Day when she heard the gunshots.
Brig Sabatha Mokgwabone, police spokesperson, said the victim was approached by four unknown men, all armed with handguns. “The men allegedly opened fire on the victim and fled the scene in two vehicles. Preliminary investigation showed that the victim was shot multiple times. The motive is unknown and no arrest has been made. Investigations are underway."
The police did not disclose the victim’s identity.
Sabotasie kry skuld vir droë krane
Klerksdorp Rekord, Klerksdorp - Inwoners van Flamwood, Adamayview en Irenepark sit met hul hande in hul hare, want hul krane is reeds drie dae droog. Van die inwoners in die buurte kla dat hul krane al sedert die naweek droog is.
Die inwoners maak staat op vriende en familie wat in ander voorstede bly, om water aan te ry.
Verskeie versoeke aan die stadsraad om watertenkers te verskaf val ook op dowe ore en terwyl daar ‘n gesukkel met water is, gons die gemeenskapsgroepe op sosiale media oor die gebrek aan dienslewering.
