Benoni SAPS communication officer Const Zunickha Essakjee said the suspect was arrested at her home, at around 11.30pm.
Essakjee said the arrest came after a man stumbled upon a two-plate stove belonging to him, at a Maalstroom Street property, in Farrarmere.
He enquired with the home owner where the item came from, and was told it was purchased off a woman from Farrarmere Gardens.
The owner of the goods informed CMS, who alerted police.
Essakjee said the man identified more items belonging to him at the woman’s home; including a carpet, stove, tyres and chairs.
Police were unable to say where the complainant, whose goods were found, lives, or when they were taken from him.
The suspect will be charged with a case of possession of suspected stolen goods.
