Medical rescue vehicle stolen

An ER24 medical rescue vehicle was stolen from a paramedic’s residence in Klerksdorp yesterday.

ER24 spokesperson, Werner Vermaak, said the branded single cab Toyota Hilux could not be traced as the tracking unit was removed, allegedly by the thief.

He said the medical equipment inside the vehicle was also removed and found in an open veld in the area.

The car’s registration number is YRC495GP and has ER24 branding across the back and front of the vehicle, in red. It also has the call number MR03 on it, Vermaak said.

Members of the public were encouraged to contact police if they had any information about the car.
