Kuils River police are searching for a suspect involved in an alleged break in at a shopping centre in the area.

Police were alerted of the incident by ADT security officials early this morning.

“An immediate search by police in the area, led to the arrest of a 34 year old male suspect in one of the nearby streets. He was found in possession of two bags containing an undisclosed amount of cash,” said Senior Superintendant Billy Jones.

The search for the other suspect, who is still at large, continues.

It is believed that the two suspects gained access through the roof of the shop.

They used explosives to gain access to an ATM inside the shop, from where the money was taken.

A case of theft is being investigated.

The suspect will appear in the Kuils River Magistrate Court soon.
