A man was caught stealing a seesaw in Ravensmead.
A man convicted for stealing a seesaw from a park in Ravensmead is expected to be sentenced in the Goodwood Magistrate’s Court.
He is among 88 arrests the City of Cape Town's Metal Theft Unit made in the 10 months between July 2025 and April 2026.
"Public assistance is critical in clamping down on the illegal trade in metals, so if you see something, please report it, no matter how big or small. In one of the most recent cases before court, there was a theft conviction for stealing a seesaw from a park in Ravensmead. So, justice does come around in some cases," said Saftey and Security mayco member, JP Smith.
Another conviction awaiting sentencing in the same court relates to damage to, and/or possession of essential infrastructure (Prasa property).
