Poacher apprehended by officer.

Today at around 12h30 our community Liason was patroling in Nahoon, in Reef road, when he came across someone that was attempting to lay a trap for the illegal poaching of animals. Our member immediately stopped and apprehended the man with traps and snares in hand.

The suspect was then arrested and handed over to Law Enforcement, where a case has been opened.

It has been a massive problem in the area for some time now and we will continue to make efforts to curb this crime.

Well done to our member⚡️

Break-in syndicate dealt blow through intelligence driven operation.

The past few days we have been investigating a syndicate that has been breaking into homes in Kugompo but mainly the areas of Nahoon, Stirling and Bonniedoon.

Yesterday through an intelligence driven operation our team located the vehicle and individuals involved coming towards East London on the N2 using multiple resources and our tracing team.

We intercepted the vehicle but upon noticing our teams. The vehicle and suspects fled and a high speed chase incurred. The driver who is known to us was driving on the wrong side of the road and was driving in an extremely reckless and dangerous manor. Almost causing multiple accidents, making our team withdraw back at stages in the interest of public safety. The Chase came to an end when the vehicle entered into Npumalelo and suspects fleeing. Our teams managed to recover the vehicle with stolen goods.

The vehicle which is a rental has been impounded and the investigation is on going. Hopefully soon the individuals involved will be apprehended and we can get another syndicate off our streets.

Winter is here and that means it's fire season.

Heaters left on overnight. Electrical faults under pressure from the cold. Candles when the power goes out. The risk of fire increases significantly in the colder months - and in most cases, the difference between a contained incident and a catastrophic one comes down to a single factor.
How early you knew.

Early warning fire detection gives you the time that changes outcomes. Not just an alarm when a fire has already taken hold - but intelligent detection at the first sign of smoke, heat, or gas, triggering an immediate response before the situation becomes unmanageable.

Red Alert's fire detection solutions are designed to give you exactly that. Early warning. Fast response.

The best security doesn't wait for someone to get in. It stops them at the boundary.

Electric fencing is one of the most effective and most underutilised layer of residential and commercial security in South Africa. Not because people don't see the value - but because not all electric fencing is installed, monitored, and maintained to the standard that makes it genuinely effective.

A poorly installed fence is a deterrent in appearance only. A properly installed, regularly maintained, and actively monitored electric fence is a meaningful barrier - one that integrates with your alarm system and control centre to give you a complete perimeter defence rather than a standalone feature.

Red Alert installs and maintains electric fencing to the highest standard - because a boundary worth having is a boundary worth doing properly.

Your alarm is only as good as what's behind it.

Anyone can put a siren on a wall. What sets a security provider apart is what happens the moment it goes off - the technology monitoring your property, the surveillance network across the city, the control centre processing real-time crime intelligence, and the response capability that gets the right people to you fast.

At Red Alert, our investment in advanced technology and city-wide surveillance infrastructure means we don't just react to incidents. We anticipate them.

Because when it matters most, the difference between a good outcome and a bad one is measured in minutes. Sometimes seconds.
