PICTURE: PixabayThe police’s Andre Traut says the suspects were arrested in
different addresses in Kleinvlei, on Monday night.
‘’Kleinvlei detectives joined forces with the Anti-Gang
Unit to probe the circumstances surrounding a brazen incident where non-lethal
ammunition and a gas canister launcher were stolen. The investigation led the
team to various locations in and around Kleinvlei during the course of last
night where the suspects were apprehended at separate addresses. The two men
face charges for house breaking and theft, while the female will be charged
with possession of stolen goods and unlicensed ammunition,’’ said Colonel Andrè
Traut.
‘’The first breakthrough came on Sunday when the gas
canister launcher and some of the ammunition were discovered abandoned next to
Baden Powell Drive. During last night’s search operation more ammunition was
seized. A small quantity of ammunition is yet to be recovered,’’ he added.
Traut said once charged, the suspects are expected to make
their court appearances in Blue Downs Magistrates’ court to face the charges
against them.
