Last night (13 June 2019) my father Jan Paul Barnard and his partner Ricca were brutally attacked two thugs in their home in Alicedale – the attackers were after money firearms and cellphones. The brutally of the attack on two elderly people is so shocking and very traumatic.
My dad and Ricca were severely beaten over the head and my dad has been hurt badly. He has a broken crushed hand that needs surgery but because of his recent pacemaker surgery, he will only be able to have his surgery later.
The trauma and brutality are horrific. We are very grateful that they are alive and spared and so grateful for the community that aided them straight after the attack. Charmaine their personal assistant/bookkeeper and Loodt Büchner a game farmer we are so thankful for coming to their aid immediately.
Anton and I are currently in Port Elizabeth with them.
Keep them in your prayers they are very traumatized.
The 2 thugs are still out there with the firearms and stolen cash mostly Euro’s.
Praying they will be caught.
