A VIGILANT Blue Security armed response officer apprehended a suspect and recovered stolen goods at the weekend.
Blue Security’s Andreas Mathios said the arrest occurred in Glenmore at around 1.50am after an officer searched the area for an alleged housebreaker.
“Our officer responded to the scene where a suspect had broken into a resident’s garage and fled with valuables including a racing bike valued at R3 500, an iPad, a drill, a jigsaw, an internet router, a car radio, running shoes and four two way radios,” Mathios said.
He said the officer patrolled the area in search of the suspect and eventually tracked him down and arrested him in Sydney Road. He was handed over to the Umbilo SAPS.
