“The complainant was interviewed and furthermore positively identified the suspect as the culprit, who had allegedly committed the house robbery, and whom he had opened a case against,” said Sergeant Roxanne Gibb.
The communications officer added that upon conducting a search of the suspect, no weapon was found.
However, the Eldorado Park SAPS members found two cellphones in his possession, which the complainant verified were his, and that which was forcefully taken during the alleged house robbery that occurred.
