Atlas Security Officers Save a Life in Kariega

Safety

On the evening of 3 January 2025, Atlas Security officers demonstrated their commitment to protecting lives during a medical emergency at an Engen Garage in Penford, Kariega.

The incident unfolded at 21:54 when the property manager alerted our officers to a serious situation involving a 37-year-old male with a stab wound to his chest. Acting swiftly, our first-aid-trained officers assessed the situation and provided immediate care. They covered the wound and successfully stopped the bleeding while ensuring the victim remained stable.

SAPS arrived on the scene to assist and facilitated communication with Metro Ambulance. Upon their arrival, paramedics took over care and transported the individual to Provincial Hospital for further medical attention.

This incident underscores the value of having trained professionals on the ground who are ready to respond when every second matters. At Atlas Security, our dedication extends beyond securing properties—we are here to protect and save lives.

We commend our officers for their quick thinking and professionalism in this critical situation.
