Frank Avenue, Thursday, 04:20am
Access was gained to the property from the road by climbing over front wall. Footmarks left by burglars. They proceeded up the left side of the house and removed the aluminium frames holding the glass in place from a pane that cannot open and is therefore not linked to a magnetic sensor. The alarm system therefore did not activate and the robbers moved around freely on the ground floor of the house while the occupants slept upstairs.
Electronic devices were stolen, including: TV, laptops, iPads, cameras, PC, handbag, purses, cash. Credit cards were left.
The robbery was only detected at 06h30, and noises heard were put down to other occupants moving around in the house. Nothing was suspect because the alarm had not activated and there was no reason for concern.
Reported to SAPS.
