Horse patrols a success

"A big success." This is how Mossel

Bay Community Policing Forum (CPF) chairman Leon van Dyk sums up the horse patrols on Mossel Bay beaches during the December holiday.

The project was initiated by the Mossel Bay CPF in collaboration with the local police, security companies, the municipality and neighbourhood watches. "These partners assisted for five weeks every Saturday to ensure the safety of holiday makers."

Horses patrolled the area between Voorbaai and the harbour.

"We will definitely continue with this initiative in future as it helped to combat crime in Mossel Bay."
