Most people seem to have some story (usually petty crime, save for a few) and then I see Dr Grass's post ... I live in South Africa too and it really is scary how prevalent crime is. My list is too long to recall in full but the highlights are:
1. 2x smash and grabs
2. 3x home invasions (my mother's home, my paternal uncle's home and my maternal uncle's home; fortunately I was not there for any of these)
3. several stolen cars and/or car break-ins.
To be fair most of the above were a few years ago. The most recent incident was they broke into my car and stole my gps; got the car back from the panel-beaters today actually.
... And I live in one of the better parts of Johannesburg.
Good times.
