Even with a car guard on duty, you can’t guarantee the safety of your car.
That was the hard lesson learned by a local in Lenasia, Jozi, when it took a thief less than 10 seconds to make off with his car.
The car guard on duty didn’t even see it happening until it was too late.
His presence didn’t deter the perp, either.
The South African with more:
The car – which is hidden behind the tree and the spiked fence – was taken from the south-west of Gauteng near Lenasia Exit 1, on Cuckoo Avenue. The security footage is currently being reviewed by the authorities to determine who exactly was behind this brazen criminal act.

Not the car guard’s best work.
That goes for the driver of the car as well, who left the car running with keys still in the ignition, and the gate to the property open.
The only way he could have made it easier was by adding a “free car” sign into the mix.
This was a collective effort and the criminal came out on top.
