An attempted armed robbery led to the stabbing of two people in Croftvale earlier today (11 July 2025).
KZNVIP members were alerted after multiple residents reported a stabbing incident at the end of Croftvale. Upon receiving the reports, KZNVIP Medics and Security Response Teams were immediately dispatched to the scene.
It is believed that a known African male suspect, allegedly a drug user from the area, gained access to the property and repeatedly stabbed a 62-year-old man. The victim's son, who heard the commotion and rushed to help, was also stabbed multiple times. The suspect fled with an undisclosed amount of valuables.
Both patients were stabilised on scene by KZNVIP Medics, whilst another KZNVIP ambulance was en route. They were later transported to a medical facility for further treatment.
All relevant emergency services were in attendance, and SAPS Phoenix was notified of the incident.
