The Johannesburg Metro Police Department (JMPD) is going undercover to curb rock-throwing crimes along the N12 freeway.
JMPD spokesperson Wayne Minnaar said operations would begin immediately and would be led by undercover officers.
This follows reports of violent incidents along the N12 freeway between Lenasia and the N1 freeway.
Minnaar said a Lenasia motorist was killed recently after he lost control of his car and crashed after a rock hit his vehicle. There have also been reports of motorists being robbed of their belongings while others have been assaulted.
