Local Militia Action - South African Edition

From Richard Abelson at The Gateway Pundit: South Africa: Using Only Pistols, Local Militia Stops 15 Armed Robbers with AK-47s Who Blew Up Armored Truck.

On Thursday, 9/21, local farmer militiamen in South Africa stopped a gang of 15 armed robbers armed with AK-47s who had just robbed an armored car, killing the driver. The local volunteers apprehended the fugitives after a high-speed chase, including a dangerous Mozambican criminal wanted for murder of a police officer.

Various groups of farmers are forming militias in response to increased rural crime.

The militia was notified of the attack and blocked the road the robbers were using.

Police spokesperson Colonel Malesela Ledwaba said the community protection team “returned fire and when the dust settled, four suspects were fatally shot, one injured and arrested while others managed to evade arrest by running into nearby bushes,” The Citizen reports.

The farmers tracked them down using dogs. (Hat tip to Kim du Toit at Splendid Isolation.)
