Three suspected housebreakers were arrested in Randpark Ridge on 8 January.

“A client called us when they saw people entering her neighbour’s house,” said the company’s spokesperson Allan Baudry. “We immediately called the police for back-up. After a chase, three people were apprehended on 14th Avenue by the Flying Squad. The suspects were travelling in a white Toyota Conquest and there was a TV in the backseat.”
Karen du Plessis, public relations officer for the West Rand Flying Squad, said the case is still under investigation.

The three have been charged with house breaking and were found in possession of a plasma TV and cellphones.
