“Dedicated patrol vehicles from Gillitts Park responded, with support from a tactical unit and the area manager. After an extensive search, the suspects were located hiding in Tudor Road by a tactical officer. They were found in possession of several house break-in tools,” said the Blue Security team.

Hillcrest SAPS attended the scene and took the suspects into custody. Further investigations have linked the duo to an earlier break-in at a business in Kloof.
