An elderly Free State woman was raped at knifepoint in her home just before midnight on New Year s Eve.
Brig Motantsi Makhele said a 34-year-old man from Tlholong near Kestell is in police custody in connection with rape and robbery charges.
The 92-year-old woman was asleep alone in her bedroom at 11.45pm when she heard a bedroom window pane breaking. She had fallen asleep with the lights on, and identified the intruder as a neighbour.
Lynchburgâs vice-mayor has a large map of the cityâs streets and trails taped to his dining room wall.
Several times per week, using a red marker, he outlines the streets he has run on â about 330 miles so far.
In May, Beau Wright made it his goal to run every single street and trail in the city. He has completed about two-thirds of it so far and is giving himself one year to complete the challenge, which he has since named âRun LYH Challenge.â
Wright, a former short-term member of the E.C. Glass High School cross country team, admits he is not the fastest or most competitive runner.
