On November 1, 2026, City Highway Patrol officers in Somerset West, South Africa, stopped a vehicle and found four illegal firearms and ammunition. Four of the five occupants were arrested, while the fifth fled. Alderman JP Smith praised the officers' vigilance. In the past week, Cape Town's enforcement departments made 199 arrests, executed 2,076 warrants, impounded 118 vehicles, and issued thousands of fines.
