FIREARMS, ammunition, narcotics and various stolen goods were recovered at a house in Tembisa on Saturday, April 2, while four suspects were also arrested.
The arrests followed a hijacking incident over the weekend in Rabie Ridge, said Leané du Plessis, spokesman for Ctrack.
“The company had its recovery team on the scene within 25 minutes after a vehicle had been hijacked from its driver at gunpoint outside a café in Tembisa on Saturday.
“On being confronted, the suspects tried to get away but were subsequently apprehended by Rabie Ridge SAPS in a nearby house, with firearms and live ammunition being recovered.
“Police also seized illegal narcotics, stolen household items and two other stolen vehicles. The vehicle was recovered on the scene for return to its owner, who was unscathed in the ordeal,” she said.
