Four housebreaking suspects who terrorised Noordheuwel finally arrested
Four suspected house robbers linked to a string of break-ins in Noordheuwel have been arrested following a joint operation by Help24 Secure, Fidelity Security, and police.
Four men believed to be behind a spate of housebreakings in Noordheuwel have been arrested following a joint operation by Help24 Secure, Fidelity Security, and the police.
According to Help24 Secure CEO Sheldon Grobler, information was received about a white Toyota Hilux single cab bakkie involved in an attempted housebreaking in Noordheuwel on August 15.
He said an investigation was launched by a multidisciplinary team comprising Help24 Secure, Fidelity Security and the police, which led to the vehicle registration being identified. At about 10:45 on August 19, the ground teams deployed into the Linden area. At 11:15, members had eyes on the Hilux and caught the suspects attempting to gain entry into another premises.
He added that tactical members immediately intervened, detaining all four suspects and securing the vehicle on scene.
When police arrived, a search of the bakkie revealed an additional set of number plates.
Further intelligence confirmed that the same group had also robbed a house in Midrand on August 19. Law enforcement has since confirmed to the Krugersdorp News that the suspects were linked to several break-ins in Noordheuwel.
