Crimes of the South African Police Service

I was having breakfast at Oldes, on the corner of Grey Street and Trotter Street, on Sunday, April 7 2013 when i noticed that 2 Knysna SAPS vans had been parked, almost hidden, for a long period behind Checkers. Later, 2 cops emerged with several packets of groceries in hand, more than a breakfast, and then continued to sit with doors open.
Since when can official police vehicles be used for private shopping?
Why i object to such behaviour is because there have been numerous reports of vehicles not been available when a crime has been reported. It happened to me with the knife attack iwitnessed at the Knysna Waterfront. Last week it happened to a business owner i know who caught the criminal who’d robbed him earlier in the day.
Knysna cops remain shit cops who care little about duty or the public they are suppose to protect. The parade of Colonels in and out of the Knysna police station does little to inspire confidence in them.
