A suspected farm attacker was badly injured when he tried to escape the community in Kameeldrift east on Sunday.

“He sustained a moderate to severe head injury when he fell and hit his head while trying to flee from community members. He was taken to a local hospital, under police guard and is in a stable condition.”

A case of attempted robbery was opened at the Cullinan police station, CERT SA said.
