Survives: Afrikaner cyclist Rudi vdWesthuizen 29, hijacked at gunpoint by black male, Rustenburg 28-Mar-2014 Platinum Weekly Newspaper - Rustenburg – Rudi van der Westhuizen, a 29-year-old cycler, was hi-jacked! Yes, hi-jacked at gunpoint of his bicycle on Friday (21 March ’14) morning at approximately 9h15. Friday started like any other day when the cycling group meets and take to the road to do a couple of kilometres (apart from the fact that it was a public holiday; Heritage Day). The group gradually fragmented as the fast peddlers went ahead while the laid back cyclists fell to the rear of the pack. Rudi had ‘taken the lead’ and as such he reached the bridge at the Wildevy Shopping centre before his fellow cyclists. Municipal workers had recently dug a ditch, which effectively cut off that section of the course. Undeterred, Rudi decided to cross the ditch. He climbed from his bicycle and went through the ditch. He noted a man approaching in the distance, but did not make anything of it. When he reached the other side he was just about to mount his bike again when that very same man was virtually next to him... pointing a gun at him. The man told Rudi to give him his bicycle; and Rudi obliged. He then asked Rudi where he lives. Rudi told the man that he resides in Geelhoutpark. The man pointed his gun at Rudi once more and told him to “…turn around and run away!” Afraid for his life, Rudi turned around and ran. Dreading that he would be shot in the back at any moment. As the rest of the pack closed in on the bridge, a fellow cyclist, Hennie Fourie, 62, recognised the professional cycling bicycle. He and other members of the group approached the man and Hennie asked him where he found the bicycle. The man cursed at Hennie and the other group members and said that it belonged to him. Hennie, unconvinced by the man’s answer stepped closer. The man then pulled out his gun and waved it at the cyclists! He then threw the Bicycle on the ground and ran away. Hennie took the bicycle home until Rudi could be reached... The gunman was described as: 'Well dressed and presumably from another country. It is believed he is from Mozambique." http://www.platinumweekly.co.za/articleA426.html
