Upon arrival, our armed response team made contact with the property owner, who confirmed a positive incident in progress. The armed response officer promptly relayed updates to the Control Room and requested backup assistance. Bravo 11 and our RIU vehicle unit were dispatched and arrived shortly thereafter.
Further investigation, supported by statements from both the owner and a witness and revealed that two suspects had scaled the front perimeter wall of the property. Once inside, the suspects began stealing electric vehicle cables and motor vehicle parts.
A friend of the client, heard suspicious noises and went outside to investigate. Upon confronting one of the suspects, a physical altercation ensued.
Our armed response team immediately rendered medical assistance to both the injured witness and the suspect. For safety reasons, the suspect was placed in handcuffs while medical attention was provided. The second suspect managed to flee the scene and evaded arrest.
SAPS arrived on scene shortly thereafter and the apprehended suspect was formally handed over into SAPS custody for further investigation.
