Three suspects were arrested yesterday morning for being in possession of possible stolen property. Two of the suspects were pulled off Baden Powall road by flying squad members and the other arrested at a premise in Philippi East.
“Both suspects from Khayelitsha were arrested for possibly stealing a green Toyota conquest in which they were found with two engines in the boot, says Police spokesperson, Bernadine Steyn.”
Further investigation led police to a premise in Philippi East where a 40 year-old man was found in possession of five possible stolen vehicles, vehicle parts and a trailor to the value of R450 000 which were all confiscated.
The three men are expected to appear in the Khayelitsha Magistrate’s court on Monday.
