An intelligence driven operation by our CPF this morning resulted in four suspects being arrested in possession of suspected stolen copper and handed to SAPS.
Last week two intersections were targeted in our area and traffic lights damaged and copper stolen.
We believe the arrested individuals may be linked to those thefts and investigations will continue.
I congratulate all our CPF operatives involved in developing the crime intelligence that led to these arrests and all those that participated in the operation this morning with a special word of recognition to BS12 who was primarily responsible for developing the Intel.
We also thank our partners Fox security, D&D and EMPD that offered backup in the arrest.
The partnership between community and SAPS strikes another blow against crime.
Be Safe
