They then chuck the clothing in a nearby yard. This may be the latest modus operandi suspects use to appear normal and escape detection after committing a crime. The community is warned to be vigilant at all times.
Yesterday (6 July), the three suspects tried to break into a house on Amatola Street in Helderkruin. The owner of the house saw the suspects in the yard and pressed the panic button. The three fled and one was caught. Police are still searching for the other two.
