A 16-year-old student (now 22) from Limpopo, South Africa, has received attention for a safety device she designed. Her name is Bohlale Mphahlele. She created the idea for a device called the "Alerting Earpiece." It is a small device shaped like an earring. The goal is to help people in dangerous situations.
She got the idea because of high crime rates and gender-based violence in South Africa. She wanted to design something small, simple, and easy to use.
The design includes a small camera, a GPS tracker, and an alert button. The idea is that the user can press a hidden button. The device would then take a photo of the attacker. It would also send the user's location to trusted contacts and emergency services.
The device is still in development: The prototype has won awards (including bronze at the Eskom Expo) and international attention, but it’s not yet commercially available.
It will hit the market sooner than later show how one idea from one person will eventually effect the lives of many
Stay tuned to stay safe on this

A kidnapping suspect has been shot and killed in Empangeni.
The man was allegedly behind the abduction of a Pakistani businessman on 6 May in Hluhluwe.
A ransom of R200k was demanded but R90k was paid as a deposit.
That secured the release of the victim but the balance was supposed to be paid on Saturday night.
The SAPS says: “The Empangeni Tactical Response Team (TRT) initiated an operation and a guided drop-off of the outstanding balance was arranged. On Saturday night, a parcel was dropped on the N2 northbound and three suspects, who were travelling in a bakkie, arrived to pick up the parcel.
The TRT officers confronted the suspects and a shootout ensued. One suspect was shot and fatally wounded at the scene, the second suspect fled into the bushes and disappeared in the darkness, whist the third suspect drove off. The bakkie he was driving was found abandoned on the N2 on-ramp at Empangeni.”
One gun has been recovered.
A search for the outstanding kidnappers is ongoing.
