Afrikaner dad critically-injured in gunfight for his baby’s life

October 7 2010 – PRETORIA NORTH. Afrikaner dad Hendrik Gerhardus Aucamp was photographed on closed-circuit TV - firing back at an armed-robber gang at the liquor store he owns. The Aucamp couple’s baby was inside a pram standing right next to the black attack-gang. Seriously injured himself, Aucamp still was able to shoot back – firing off three shots which killed one gunman.

Beeld journalist Gerhard Pretorius writes that three armed black men held up Aucamp’s Crown liquor shop in President Steyn Street, Pretoria North. The attack took place just after 8pm. One of the black men plucked out a handgun and immediately fired shots at Mr Aucamp – who was hit in the stomach while he was firing three shots at the armed-robber, hitting him in the upper body. During the shooting, their baby son was seated in his pram near the counter and his mother Marisa was aslso near the scene of the gunfight.

The injured black man ran about 60 meters, trying to make his escape, before collapsing on the corner of Jopie Fourie- and President Steyn Street. SAPS spokesman warrant-officer Dikatso Tebe said the armed robber died of his injuries.

Mr Aucamp was rushed to the nearest hospital in Ga-Rankuwa where he underwent emergency surgery that night and another operation at 11am. Family member Renier Smal said that he is in ‘serious condition’.
