We were woken by a burglar at 05:30 this morning The beam alarm didn't go off for some reason.
I chased them out of the house, but I lost my laptop and got seven stab wounds as a reward - mainly on my left arm, with one feeble nick on my chest.. I was nicely patched up at the Kingsbury, so, after an operartion to fix a tendon in my hand, I'll be OK.. It was very painful, but that has been sorted out too. Thank you very much to the delightful man from Obs Watch.. I didn't get his name, but he called the ambulance and police, and was extremely kind and helpful to us. The Police and paramedics were really helpful .. They took a while to come, but that was our fault: Tip: make sure you have all the numbers handy, not just on your 'phone (they stole that).. There were two black guys, one about 5:8 & bald..The other was the look out small and, maybe 14-15.. The special forensic cleaners did a brilliant job, there was a lot of blood.. the police took lots of fingerpfrints and there are some very clear footprints. So I hope they will be caught.. stolen: Diamind wedding ring,Macbook Pro, iPhone 5c -- maybe a few other things They used wire cutters to cut through our burglar guards.. Anyone who knows who the Obswatch gentleman is, please let us know . We would like to thank him personally. By the way the paramedic in the ambulance thought she had got it wrong, when she heard that there was a stabbing in Observatory; "you just don't get cal outs for stabbings in Observatory" she said. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- OPS [Obsid Public Safety] - 24/7 control room TEL: 021-447-1066 or 072-063-1653 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- EMERGENCIES: 10111 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ONW email: o...@obs.org.za WEB: www.obswatch.org.za FACEBOOK: facebook.com/obswatch ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Useful Obs Numbers: obs.org.za/obsdir You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups The Observatory Neighbourhood watch group.
