JMPD officers lauded for rescuing stranded mother, baby on N1
The Johannesburg metro police has lauded the work of two officers who went out of their way to assist a stranded mother on the N1.
The woman and her 6-month-old baby ground to a halt next to the busy highway when her car picked up a flat tyre.
Bayi Malebane says she felt unsafe until Inspector Daniel Tshimbudzi and Officer Charles Letswalo came to their rescue.
"The place I was stuck in is known to be risky and unsafe, and I was worried because the car insurance company was taking their time arriving. Seeing acts of kindness and compassion from law enforcement personnel is heart-warming."
She says the officers acted with professionalism and empathy when she was in a state of desperation.
"We should always be grateful for our law enforcement officers who go above and beyond the call of duty to serve and protect their communities. I am grateful to the two officers for taking their time and assisting me because I didn't have much of a plan.
"I was so relieved when I saw them approaching.”
