One suspect was arrested, while one was still in the building. He was apprehended afterwards. In another incident on April 6, a robbery took place on Joubert Street.

According to the information, four women and two men were involved. A white Hyundai H1 minivan and a white Golf were the get-away vehicles.

There were no registration plates on either vehicle and they fled in an unknown direction. The robbers tied up the homeowners inside the house.

“A syndicate, as in the past, is possibly involved,” KSS said.

KSS requested anyone with CCTV footage to assist. According to Jandré Kasselman, the company deployed guards at certain properties in Kosmospark and Florapark. The empty Eskom houses in the area have been vandalised in the past.
