Authorities are searching for a man who has allegedly disappeared with a rental car.
According to Reaction Unit South Africa (Rusa) the owners of City Car Rental based in Durban in KwaZulu-Natal approached them on Friday morning about a missing white 2026 VW Polo.
“City Car Rental, based on Umgeni Road, confirmed the vehicle, bearing the registration BS74NS-ZN, was rented on July2. The address provided by the client was a residence in Kenville, KwaZulu-Natal,” Rusa said in a statement.
On July 16 the rental company lost contact with the client.
