A woman woke to find a suspect next to her bed during a house robbery in Selcourt on Thursday afternoon.
The complainant says she was sleeping when she heard a noise in the house and when she woke up, she saw a man standing next to her bed, who ordered her to go back to sleep, says Springs police spokesperson Capt Johannes Ramphora.
Two other suspects then joined the man in the bedroom, and together they ransacked the house.
