On Monday morning the swift reaction by two metro police officers resulted in the arrest of one of Athlone’s notorious drug dealers.
“The officers were busy with routine patrols in Elsieskraal Road, Manenberg, when they noticed the suspect driving past them in a white VW Golf,” said Metro Police deputy Chief Yolanda Faro.
The suspect tried to flee when officers approached him
He was searched and two packets of heroin with a street value of approximately R6 000 were found in his possession.
Faro said the suspect was arrested on charges of being in possession of illegal narcotics and bribery as he also tried to bribe the two metro police officers for his release.
