“The ANC Free State has noted with concern the intrusion by a ‘stran ger’ at the premises of SABC in Bloemfontein. This raises serious security concerns about the continuing illegal invasion of Key Points in our country. We are relieved that security was able to act promptly to arrest the perpetrator.

“We call upon the community to be on the lookout for anyone intending to vandalize public and private properties and report that to the police in order to bring order and stability,” said the party.

Previously, Hawks spokesperson, Captain Singo indicated that the police and emergency services were called to the scene and the suspect is currently under police guard in hospital.

“A separate case of attempted murder will be investigated by Parkweg detectives,” revealed captain Singo.
